The Hippies of the 1960’s

Feminism, black power, and anti-war
These were the topics they were mostly for
Woodstock, petitions, protests on streets
Often shocked people out of their seats
The most radical group of the 1960’s
Oh what life would have been like without the radical hippies

Equal rights, and equal pay,
Women should have it every day
‘A Woman should have the right to choose
This is one movement we aren’t going to lose’
Voicing opinions and burning bras
this was a new sight people actually saw


Africans Americans, they have rights too
The black power movement, it definitely grew
“stop the war in Vietnam
We don’t agree with dropping those bombs’
‘Hey , hey LBJ
How many kids did you kill today?’


The Woodstock festival and the Summer of Love
When someone says “hippie” it’s what you think of
Hendrix and Joplin were very well known
Spreading the movement through their love of rock & roll
Everyone was equal during the 1960’s hippie age
And that was the style of life in which they chose to engage.
