1967: Inside ‘Haight Ashbury' During the ‘Summer of Love'

The Bay Area Revelations team takes a look back at the stories and people who lived and survived the Summer Of Love in 1967. It was the neighborhood event in San Francisco that shook the world. Hundreds of thousands of people, including hippies, came to the city and packed the streets for a few short months.

It created a counter-culture and the ideas that started there are now part of our everyday world. The Summer of Love changed the way we look at environment, religion, healthy food, music, psychedelic drugs and even reality.

We'll have exclusive interviews from some of the musicians, flower children, an iconic poster artist and a rookie police officer that walked the beat in the Haight.

Bay Area Revelations: Summer of Love, 50 Years Later airs Saturday June 10 at 8 p.m.
