Description One of the most endurable peace anthems from the counter-culture movement of the 1960s, “Give peace a chance” is a plea to humanity’s better nature. In 1969, the expression was popularized in song by Beatle’s singer John Lennon during his Bed-In for peace in Montreal. The slogan was rapidly adopted by the anti-war movement as well as by peace proponents around the world. Wear this pin and get an instant trip back to the days of Free Love and Flower Power.
