America's Reaction To the Counterculture
Many people went Anti-war which made many Americans unite in peace to promote it all around the U.S. Their were protests, concerts and rallies around the U.S. about the war. Groups of protesters also protested for civil rights movements. The American influence was a huge success. This promotion of peace and love caused there to be less wars. If it wasn't for that counterculture, we wouldn't have made this much of a difference from then to now.
