Side Track No. Comments One 000 006 A panel involving Jack Kerouac, Ed Sanders and others are interviewed about the Hippy movement 025 Interviewer asks Saunders if he is a “hippy”; and if not, how does he differ 047 Question – “Are we to assume from this that the [Hippy] does not have a highly developed political ideology?” 065 The interviewer searches for a general definition of “Hippy” 100 “What distinguishes the Hippy movement?” 117 Kerouac is asked, “To what extent do you believe that the Beat generation is related to the Hippies…?” 130 Kerouac responds about the aspects of social insurrection which have been associated with the Beat generation 185 An unidentified speaker ties the concept of misanthropy to the war: suggesting that a street culture has evolved as a way of rejecting the prospects of entering the Vietnam war 210 A university professor searches for a comprehensive definition to the Hippy movement 250 American politics – particularly the governments of Kennedy and Johnson are compared 284 Kerouac is asked if he thinks Americans are disillusioned with the political process 300 Sanders makes extensive comments about Czechoslovakia, and legitimate means of non-violent political protest 340 The discussion focuses upon recent issues involving violent confrontations between police and demonstrators 409 Kerouac – “There are people who make a rule of creating chaos, once that chaos is under way, then they can be elected as the people to take care of the chaos… these people become ‘commissars’ of violence.” 485 The “psychedelic creed” of the hippy movement is examined. A question is directed to a panel member: 547 “What kind of a future do you see for the Hippy movement?” 564 “Would any of you regard the Hippy movement … as a manifestation of the psychological inadequacies of the individual Hippies themselves?” 591 “Do [the Hippies] plan to make it a life-time occupation; are they just going to sit around and watch the world go by?” 599 End.
