Civil Rights: newspaper clippings about the desegregation, photos of signs that said 'whites only', or the obituary of Dr ML King Jr
Hippies: Other than bad flashbacks (lol) - maybe photos or ticket stubs from Woodstock, mood rings, newspaper clippings
Politicians: newspaper clippings about Watergate, the Roe vs Wade decision, anything involving the war in Vietnam

Hip hugging bell-bottoms, platform shoes (guys too), mood rings and dashikis. Most white youths wore very long hair (guys too) and the black youths wore Afros. Above all--,peace signs (in belt buckles or on chains worn around the neck) were worn to send the message of "Peace not War" in protest to the Vietnam war.,
