You must talk about one specific aspect only and not repeat anyone else selection, topic or ideas. Then tell us why you selected this value/ideal/rule. What made you choose it?

2.- Compare and contrast that specific aspect of the 60s counterculture (the one triggered that you were describing in question 1) with our society of 2016. Have we changed our behavior/reaction/ response from that of the 60s? In what way AND why?

3.- Post the URL link (www. (Links to an external site.)Links to an external site. ...) to a movie -only ONE please- that reflects/supports your reasoning. You can use movies mentioned in the book, the screenings or otherwise widely available. Then explain in detail how the movie supports your reasoning.
