John Lennon and Yoko Ono
While the effectiveness of John Lennon and Yoko Ono’s Bed-In protests can be debated, there is no denying the spirit of their actions was exceptionally clear and positive. Hoping to capitalize on their notoriety and the press surrounding their marriage, Lennon and Ono called the media to their room at the Amsterdam Hilton. There they staged a bed-in to support world peace. Surrounded by signs that read “bed peace” and “hair peace,” the couple spoke about their hopes for a happier, more peaceful world. Perhaps their protests didn’t have the reach they hoped, but the bed-ins are noted as one of pop culture’s most memorable protests.
