Flower Children/Hippies
By: Makayla Moran
Hippies
Hippies would attract much attention by walking around barefoot or in sandals. They would also wear clothing that were of unusual combinations. Hippies would typically have really long hair which they thought was an indication of freedom and to act as they will. They would walk around public proudly wearing the stuff they did. Hippies were often vegetarians and eco-friendly.
Hippies were over users of drugs which is not good especially since most of the hippies were middle aged. They used many drugs which shaped their ideas that they believed would be helpful. Hippies often admired Timothy Leary, a physiologist who preached through the use of drugs, because they were big fans of his work. Hippies had made a large impact through their time period in good and bad ways.
