FLOWER POWER

During the late 1960s and early 1970s, as an action to protest the Vietnam War, the Flower Power slogan was a symbol of non violence ideology used by hippies, aka the Flower Generation or Flower Children, as indicated, wore clothes in flower patterns and vibrant colors. The followers of this ideology made symbolic gestures such as giving flower to police officers and putting flowers into the barrels of rifles. Check out this gesture in the Pulitzer-nominated phothograph by Bernie Boston.
