What state did hippies start in?

Answer 1

With the nation shocked and paralyzed by the Vietnam War, thousands of American youth showed their concern through campus rallies, antiwar demonstrations, and concerts for peace. many of them youth were strongly opposed to a war that was taking place halfway across the world, in which their fathers, brothers, friends, and husbands were dying. united in their antiwar sentiment, they joined in the "counterculture" movement. the counterculture manifested its rebellion in several way: long hair, Rock Music (as showcased at Woodstock), tye-dye, sex, drugs, and riots are only some of the vehicles through which the counterculture asserted itself. through protests and anti-war demonstrations, the counterculture challenged the governmental institutions and traditional values of American society.
