    I think Bertrand Russell is a hippie hero. He helped design the peace sign.

    Peace and love

    Im surprised no one has mentioned this.

    Gandhi anyone? He was where MLK got most of his practices of peace, he is a huge figure in the shaping of the whole belief in peace and love in my opinion

    The contributions of Ken Kesey and the merry pranksters can't be overlooked.

    Yeah, I'm surprised Ghandi wasn't mentioned earlier. What about Buddha? He was a hippie before hippies existed.

    Peace and love

    Johnny Cash was pretty liberal and loving in his time before Most people accepted it. Those members of the Bohemian scene in the late 1800s in germany and northern California were hippies in their day and age. And back then, Smoking pot was legal.

    Ghandi was more of a Guru then a hipster. I don't think he did drugs or alcohol. He was like the Baptist John of their faith. Most hippies are experimental. Not all had kind souls.
