Chapter 25 Section 1 The Cold War BeginsThe Counterculture Section 1 What was the counterculture, and what impact did it have on American society? In the 1960s, youths rebelled against long- standing customs in dress, music, and personal behavior. The counterculture both challenged traditional values and unleashed a movement to reassert basic values.

Chapter 25 Section 1 The Cold War BeginsThe Counterculture Section 1 In the 1960s, many young people joined the counterculture movement, rebelling against their parents’ values and traditions.

Chapter 25 Section 1 The Cold War BeginsThe Counterculture Section 1 the Beat movement of the 1950s, which rejected materialism the civil rights movement, prompted people to question traditional boundaries the Vietnam antiwar movement, which introduced the idea of social and political protest The counterculture arose from several influences.

Chapter 25 Section 1 The Cold War BeginsThe Counterculture Section 1 Four main elements defined the counterculture. Rock-and-roll music The sexual revolution A belief that drugs could free the mind An interest in spirituality

Chapter 25 Section 1 The Cold War BeginsThe Counterculture Section 1 Rock-and-roll music and folk music became forces for social and cultural change. The Beatles, a British rock group, changed the look and lifestyles of the baby boomer generation. Folk singers such as Bob Dylan wrote protest songs to highlight the civil rights and peace movements.

Chapter 25 Section 1 The Cold War BeginsThe Counterculture Section 1 The counterculture rejected many traditional restrictions on behavior. The sexual revolution called for the separation of sex from traditional family life. Some people lived together in communes: small communities of “hippies” who shared common interests and resources. Many hippies believed that drugs could free the mind.

Chapter 25 Section 1 The Cold War BeginsThe Counterculture Section 1 Members of the counterculture also explored different avenues of spirituality. Many hippies sought religious experiences outside Judeo- Christian traditions. They explored Eastern religions, such as Buddhism, or sought harmony with nature.

Chapter 25 Section 1 The Cold War BeginsThe Counterculture Section 1 Differences in values created a generation gap between young people and their parents. The baby boomer generation distrusted tradition and authority. In the mid-1960s, more than a third of the U.S. population was under 17. They became a force for social change.

Chapter 25 Section 1 The Cold War BeginsThe Counterculture Section 1 The counterculture had some positive effects on American society. Many young people rejected materialism. Groups such as women and the physically challenged sought equality. Colleges and universities began to offer multicultural programs of study.

Chapter 25 Section 1 The Cold War BeginsThe Counterculture Section 1 The negative aspects of the countercultural movement brought about its end. Drug addiction and overdose deaths rose. Violence at a Rolling Stones concert contradicted the hippies’ message of peace and love. Many people believed the counterculture had become shallow and self-centered.
