The first one is haight-Ashbury, SFs district made famous by the hippie movement. The second is Bernie Bostons famous Flower Power pic. The third is ob.

The thrid at the monterey music festival actually made the first hajaar more popular

So im gonna go with Flower Power as the connect, with regards to the hippie movement of the 60's, but im not convinced

no idea about 1st pic but the second pic symbolizes the Flower Power of the 1950s and 60s and the song San Francisco by Scott Mckenzie was kind of an anthem of the era.
wild guess about pic 1 its somewhere in San Francisco where Scott thought up the whole thing.

The first is a picture of the Haight-Ashbury district in San Francisco. It was the site of the Human Be-in anti-war protest. The second is a picture taken during the MOBE Pentagon March protesting against the Vietnam war. The song was used to popularize the Monterey Pop Festival, an hippie movement event. The district is renowned to be a centre of the hippie movement.

first pic is Haight Ashbury District crossing, which was the centerpoint of the flower power movement. 2nd pic shows hippies at an anti Vietnam protest with the slogan of flower power. 3rd video is Scott Mckenzie's Be sure to wear flowers in your hair, a hippie song which was popularized by this movement.

Flower power - the funda of passive resistance used by hippies in the 1960's especially during the summer of love which was centred in San Fransico around the corner of Haight-Ashbury. The song has an alternate title Be sure to wear flowers in your hair which is reference to the slogan of flower power. Nice qn
