flower power
Slogan of 1960s hippie changes, evoking color, peace and creativity as well as any reference to nature. Like other motifs and slogans of the period—“Summer of Love,” “groovy,” “psychedelic,” etc.—it has become a period marker for nostalgic media.
Nonetheless, the vivid image of flowers inserted into gun barrels of this period was recreated in 1999 protests against the World Trade Organization meetings in Seattle, WA.
