Hip Glossary – Hippie

Published December 26, 2023 | By Admin

Hippie: A person who’s hip. Hippies did not refer to themselves as such. The term became derogatory but is again fashionable. The whole anti-materialist, anti-war, pro peace, pro mind expansion counterculture has been termed the Hippie Movement. San Francisco writer Michael Fallon applied the term “hippie” to the SF counterculture in an article about the Blue Unicorn coffeehouse where LEMAR (Legalize Marijuana) & the Sexual Freedom League meet, & hippie houses.
