Counterculture

From Simple English Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Counterculture is a term used in psychology and sociology. It describes a set of views that are not mainstream: they differ from what most people believe. For example, the hippie counterculture started in the 1960s in the United States. It advocated nonviolence and love, had a distinct clothing style, and supported recreational drug use.[1]
