The world was restless in the late '60s, filled with wars and protests all across society. But there was also a generation determined to answer with love instead of anger, determined not to scream and shout, but to listen.
These people were bursting with peace but also with rebellion, and they believed peace could actually win. That tension made something bright bloom, a movement that used flowers as symbols of resistance.
People danced, painted, shared flowers and believed in kindness, and their happiness was contagious at best, making everyone think they could change the world one flower at a time.
