Interesting. The Beatniks were members of the so-called "Lost generation" born between the onset of the [first] Great Depression and the end of WWII.
I'm not much on blaming generations for our problems. I've seen quite enough Boomer-bashing to be sure of that. In the end, individuals act -- not generations.

I posted it because I have become weary of the Boomer-bashers here. The way I see it, if people want to blame Boomers for the ills of the world, they should, at least, understand the roots of the 60s.

Born in 37 and never even heard of beatniks until after the hippies of the 50s became predominate.
