THE IMPACT OF HIPPIES FASHION - Protesters and hippies often expressed themselves with their clothing. They would wear cheap surplus clothes recycled from earlier decades and repaired them with patches. They would also wear beads, fringe, and tie-died t-shirts. They would also have long hair, beards, and mustaches.

MUSIC - Counterculture musicians made use of folk music and rhythms of rock 'n' roll and wrote heartfelt lyrics that expressed the hopes and fears of their generation. They would hold festivals such as Woodstock for people to gather and listen to the new music.
