Peace, Love, Anti-War

The anti-war movement upset cultural, political and entertainment standards and cut through all socioeconomic classes. The turbulent 1960s were a tough time for tree-huggers ... restless, rebellious youth took to the streets to protest the war and fight oppression.
A popular poster and button of the period featured a childlike drawing of a fragile flower with the words:
"War is not healthy for children and other living things."

" ... Abundant footage taken among the massive crowd ("half a million strong") expresses the human heart of the event, from skinny-dipping hippies to accidental overdoses, to unpredictable weather, midconcert childbirth, and the thoughtful (or just plain rambling) reflections of the festive participants. Then, of course, there is the music--a nonstop parade of rock & roll from the greatest performers of the period, including Crosby, Stills, and Nash, Canned Heat, The Who, Richie Havens, Joan Baez, Ten Years After, Sly & The Family Stone, Santana, and many more. Watching this ambitious film, as the saying goes, is the next best thing to being there--it's a time-travel journey to that once-in-a-lifetime event. " --Jeff Shannon

- I'd give you 10 stars just for the video you did in high school if I could. That was fantastic and I watched the whole thing. I was right behind you, graduated in 1970, I would have been too scared to go to Woodstock, but I love anything about it now. Lensrolling to Ex Hippie Remembers Long Haired Music
