Because it creates paradigm shift, Happily Hippie: Meet a Modern Ethnicity (4th ed.) is stunning. Popular social science that's well-organized with bolded headings, this book is reader friendly. Often using scholarly sources, it's well-researched and carefully argued; however, it has a sense of humor. Happily Hippie is engaging writing you'll enjoy reading. It is the most important book on the subject yet written. If you're Hippie, if you've ever been Hippie, if you've wondered about Hippies, read this book. It will change your head; it can change this world. Hippiedom didn't die; rather, as with other outgroups, it became socially invisible. Happily Hippie argues that the Counterculture is an over-50-year-old ethnicity and explains Hippiedom's ethnogenesis. We'll learn how anti-Hippie demagoguery has warped American politics, how the War on Drugs is largely about persecuting Hippie-America and how today's Legalization (of cannabis) Movement is Hippie-America fighting for social equality. Happily Hippie documents the Counterculture's many accomplishments, including inventing the Personal Computer; it estimates over 30 million Hippie-Americans and shows readers two demographic maps of Hippie-America. We'll look at Hippies in philanthropy, Hollywood, sports, various arts, new medicine, the natural-organic-foods industry, the Green movement and around the globe. We'll see how stereotypes of Hippies echo those of other minorities, explore Hippie self-esteem issues, look at Hippie generational transfer and do some fun media analysis. Particularly, we'll consider the need for a Hippie-American ethnic organization and how we might start one.
