"Born to Be Wild" is a song written by #MarsBonfire and first released as a single by #Steppenwolf. Although the lyrics do not specifically mention motorcycles, the song is often invoked in both #popular and #counterculture to denote a #biker appearance or attitude since being featured in the 1969 film #EasyRider. Sometimes, "Born to Be Wild" is described as the first heavy metal song.

I-Feel-Like-I'm-Fixin'-to-Die is the second studio album by the American psychedelic rock band Country Joe and the Fish, released in November 1967, six months after the band's debut album, Electric Music for the Mind and Body. It is another prime example of the band's experimentation which features organ-heavy psychedelia and Eastern melodic lines, with more acoustic guitar than the debut...
The album demonstrates the band using satirical humor to express their outspoken views toward the Vietnam War and other topics of the counterculture. Although many of the tracks were not as well-known, they were still accessible and showcased Country Joe McDonald as a lead vocalist. With the creativity of the band reaching a peak, the band began touring nationally and internationally - Wikipedia

This piece pulls no punches. A raw, mixed-media collage that blends street art, graffiti, and punk aesthetics into a bold call for justice. It’s loud, unapologetic, and meant to provoke. Art can be messy, dangerous, and absolutely necessary.

The Beats
A photographic record of a cross-country journey made by American photographer Larry Fink in 1958. He and a group of counter culture artist friends traveled from their home in Greenwich Village to Houston + then on to Mexico
In his own words: 'It was my fate to be aligned with the Beats because of my propensity for drugs, anger, + poetry"

This song always takes me back to when I was like 18-21 and everyone in the friend group was an anarchist, artist, musician or some combination of those three. We all worked part time for minimum wage and spent our ample free time on our creative projects and activism. At least 75% of us were polyam, so the venn diagram of those of us who had slept together approximated a circle.

I came up with this list today, coincidentally: I think about the art created in times like these. I think of #GreenDay, The (Dixie) Chicks, #Macklemore, #ChildishGambino, #KendrickLamar , etc. Art can often speak when other voices are silenced. When culture fails #CounterCulture must serve.

The Impact of the Hippie Movement on American Politics
🌼 The hippie movement and the Woodstock festival profoundly transformed public opinion about the Vietnam War.
