An interactive post on the Guerilla War waged by hippies 1965-1970
This fascinating interactive graphic that shows the low-level guerilla war that the ‘hippies’ waged against the ‘system’ between 1965 and 1970. Over 716 police stations, schools, and military installations in the US were subjected to bombs, Molotov cocktails, or general destruction. Nobody talks of this any longer.
The graphic originated from a 1971 edition of Scanlan’s Monthly, which featured writers like Hunter S Thompson and illustrators like a young Robert Crumb.
