Helping One Another

One of the driving forces behind the ‘flower child’ movement was opposition to the Vietnam war. In fact, a big reason why many people attended Woodstock was to show solidarity in their opposition to the fateful war. Here we see people helping one another, embodying the ideals of the festival all in one picture.

The Woodstock Guru

We mentioned a famous face on a portrait a few slides back and now here we are. Satchidananda Saraswati, also known as Sri Swami Satchidananda, was in attendance at Woodstock. He was the opening speaker at Woodstock and served as a selfless source of education and peacefulness during the festivities. He stood for peace his entire life and lived until he was 87.
