Need help answering this question 100 words only.

Brenda,

Now it would be wrong to say that America was not changing before 1960, but the 1960s witnessed a massive transformation.

One term we have to keep in mind when we consider counterculture this week is the larger term culture. What is culture? Culture is an outgrowth of the interaction of individuals within a group often passed down through the generations. Culture is how we develop as human beings. Every society has a distinct culture, which is developed through socialization. American culture in the 1950s was one of relatively conformity and whiteness. The white, middle-class held hegemony, where little boys, with short hair and freckles, grew up to be straight laced men, dressed in grey flannel suits. Little girls, in pink and lace dresses, developed into young women who stay virgins until marriage to the men in the flannel grey suits. Children and teens respected their parents and elders and looked respectable, faces well-scrubbed, clothes well pressed, and hair short, clean and combed.  

This image of course was blown away in the 1960s, when children of conforming middle-class families rebelled in ways that shocked and dismayed Americans used to proper and “moral” young men and women. This generation questioned elders in different ways, growing out their hair, wearing inappropriate clothing, trying new substance, and engaging in questionable relationships.

These young men and women were soon labeled a counterculture, which when defined is a smaller group within a larger society that intentionally adopts a system of norms directly opposed to the larger society. It makes sense because their norms did go against the larger cultural norms, however, was it intentional? Who and how does one define what is intentional and what is not? Intentionality hints to depravity, especially when it comes to the counterculture of the 1960s. Did the counterculture of this period seek to destroy society or did it force a hegemonic white culture to face its hypocrisies?
