Happily Hippie-American

Über Happily Hippie-American

With a bold new perspective, Happily Hippie-American rethinks Hippies, explaining how they didn't end with the 1960s; rather, we exist today as a thriving ethnicity (with unusual ethnic origins). Also, Hippie parents are often having Hippie kids and grandkids--generational transfer. Over ten percent of today's US population is Hippie-American, from toddlers to seniors--over 30 million people. Hippiedom has been a boon to humanity: we invented the Personal Computer. We helped bring down the Iron Curtain. We created the natural/organic-foods and "adventure gear" industries and that hybrid of East-West healing called Integrative Medicine. We started the Greening of America. We are a huge presence in Hollywood--everyone from Jennifer Aniston to Woody Harrelson to Shailene Woodley to Quentin Tarantino. We are the driving force behind today's highly successful Legalization (of cannabis) Movement. We are so accomplished that if Hippiedom were an individual, we would call that person "the genius of the age." But, alas, we suffer from "social invisibility"; we have been targeted by neoconservatism and its War on Drugs, and we exist as an oppressed minority of disrespected, second-class citizens. We need our own civil-rights organization and Happily Hippie-American shows us how we might do that--for the good of ourselves and the larger nation.
