Hippies and Drugs
A hippie is anyone who rejected authority and embraced drug culture. The hippie culture started on college campuses, where young people rejected the war. The hippies were very curious, and they used drugs to explore altered states of consciousness. The drugs that they used were LSD, peyote, which is a hallucinogenic drug, cannabis, and psilocybin mushrooms. Hippies also supported something called the Sexual Revolution, which supported gay rights. Hippies also believed that they needed to be one with nature, and that to be nude was the natural state of being. In support of this culture, some hippies went out into public while nude. The hippie culture lead to the Summer of Love on the west coast of the United States of America.
