Sanfan
Well, it's actually supposed to be called St. Francisco's, it's more elegant, but it's too long
I was going to post in Los Angeles.,But this one is more popular.,Next time.
It would be more accurate to say that this is not so much the background of the rumor of marriage
In addition, the body part will not be updated recently (I want to keep it for a thousand revisions, a thousand times~~), at most put some by-products. So, give up
SanFrancisco
If you're going to San Francisco / Remember to wear a few flowers on your head / If you're going to San Francisco / You'll meet a lot of kind people.
This is a song that was widely sung in the United States in the 60s, and the song is called "When you get to San Francisco, don't forget to put a flower on your head". At first glance, this is just a song to welcome people to San Francisco, but in fact, "San Francisco" and "flower arrangement on the head" had a unique symbolic meaning in the United States at that time, and its origin was the famous "hippie movement" in the United States.
In the period before 1960, the United States was strong, socially stable, and the shadow of economic crisis was almost gone. People thought that such a life of peace and contentment would continue well, but the Vietnam War changed a certain situation. The chauvinistic mentality of some people has caused them to pay too much attention to the Vietnam issue, but the situation of foreign wars has always failed to achieve the due date, and a large number of American children have died in the jungles of Vietnam. Gradually, some people began to question the justice of the war, arguing that the Vietnam War violated the original intention of the founding of the country and the jīng god of the Constitution, and that those good young people who died in the war were not so much honorably sacrificing their lives for the country as they died from the ambitions of some political opportunists and the vanity of the chauvinists of the great powers. What's more, the American youth of that era grew up in a relatively comfortable environment.
Therefore, the opposition to the Vietnam War was taken as the starting point. Groups of young people have gradually developed to protest against the authorities with a negative attitude towards life, refusing to pay the full tax because a fixed percentage of the tax was to be spent on the Vietnam War, or touring the country to give speeches and express their views on the war without hesitating to clash with the authorities. Rock 'n' roll, psychedelics and long hair became common symbols among the passive protesters, who called themselves "Hipppies," and San Francisco was the stronghold of hippies at the time.
The band's "My Generation" became a chant for American youth in the 60s, with two lyrics, "I want to die before I grow old" and "Don't trust people over 30," which became the norms of hippies. The official lies, personal rights and rights, are all coming and going in this vast arena.
The hippies, believing that love could change the world, introduced a return to nature, and used "love and peace" as the jīng god slogan against the Vietnam War, and even put forward the slogan "Zuo love not war". In their eyes, flowers are the best symbol of love, so all the young people of that time who participated in this movement or identified with this idea were called flower girls, and they put a flower on their heads and went to San Francisco, the stronghold of hippies, which was a kind of style in the United States in the 60s.
The well-known movie Forrest Gump recalls the youth movement of that era, where Jenny is invited by a strange man to hitchhike with them, wandering, camping, playing the piano, singing, and even taking drugs. Although some people do not have obvious political tendencies, they are also attracted by the hippie attitude and lifestyle, and they have come to the same front with them.
In 1964, a huge rally called "Summeroflove" was held in San Francisco, which propelled the hippie movement to a new height. Shortly before that, Ken Kersey had just published his blockbuster novel "Flying Over the Cuckoo's Nest" about his experience with psychedelics, and the poet Ginsburg had published his most important work, "The Howl", which made the "Leapfrog Generation" god Jīng popular in San Francisco.
Today's San Francisco has long since faded in its political significance, and the warm winters and cool summers, blue skies, charming beaches, wonderful Victorian buildings, and romantic and nostalgic cable cars that were loved by hippies are now presented to the world in a more modest appearance, making San Francisco a city that many people yearn to live in.
