    2) Interviews

    4) Conclusion = situation today

    3 This article is biased. The journalist praises the festival and its legacy.

    Let’s recap!
    ➢ Group 1 The document is an article about Woodstock published in 2019. It commemorates the 50th anniversary of the
    Woodstock festival. It talks about the first Woodstock festival that took place in 1969 and explains why it was legendary:
    nearly half a million people attended the festival, sometimes it was raining, the infrastructures were no good but people were
    still there, united, for the sake of music. The people interviewed state that it was a life-changing moment in their lives and
    that it made history.

    1 a.
    What happened in the 50s What happened in the 60s The hippie culture

    rigid war eastern philosophy


    defined by their job criticize stoner
    conformity rebel threat
    communal living
    look, talk, act, think like against their parents, their
    everybody else community, their government long hair
    inspired by rock’n roll peace symbols
    flower power
    b. 1) Timothy Leary = countercultural guru
    2) 1967 = Summer of Love
    3) San Francisco - Haight Ashbury = where the Summer of Love took place

    2 The document starts with a comparison between the 1950s and the 1960s then we are given more information about the
    hippie movement and how it led to 1967’s Summer of Love. The last part of the documentary states some drawbacks of the
    hippie movement : a lot of STDs as the consequence of free sex and the use of drugs, especially acid, which led to increased
    violence.

    3 The tone is humorous: he uses humour to show that the hippies rebelled themselves against the rigid social
    conformity of the 1950s — by doing so he implicitly criticizes this rigidity. He also means to give informative
    details to his audience.

    Let’s recap!
    ➢ This video is a documentary about the hippie movement of the 1960s. It focuses on the hippie way of life and
    how it contrasted with the rigid social norms imposed in 1950s. In response to this rigidity, people rebelled and
    wrote their own rule which was that there were no rules anymore. Their ideals were freedom, love, unity, peace.
    4 – Introduce your document to the class (nature, author, main theme) and be
    ready to present it to the class (where, when, who, what).

    5 – In your opinion, why do Woodstock and the hippie movement still live on in
    people’s minds?
    (cultural legacy, be part of history, sense of togetherness, bond, sharing the same values, asserting
    oneself, longing for peace, changing the world…)

    Woodstock and the hippie movement still live on in people’s mind probably because today we
    still aspire to some of the same ideals. Unprecedented events like Woodstock were covered
    by all types of media and celebrated in film and song, providing a lasting document of this
    colorful and appealing movement.

    6 – What do the documents and your personal findings reveal about America and
    Americans at the time?
    SOCIAL IMPACT CULTURAL IMPACT POLITICAL IMPACT ENVIRONMENTAL
    IMPACT
