Bagism
Bagism is a term which was created by John Lennon and Yoko Ono as part of their extensive peace campaign in the late 1960s. The intent of bagism was to satirize prejudice and stereotyping. Bagism involved literally wearing a bag over one's entire body. According to John and Yoko, by living in a bag, a person could not be judged by others on the basis of skin color, gender, hair length, attire, age, or any other such attributes. It was presented as a form of total communication: instead of focusing on outward appearance, the listener would hear only the bagist's message.
== Purpose and origins ==
John and Yoko introduced the idea during a well-received press conference in Vienna on 31 March 1969,〔("John Lennon & Yoko Ono: Bagism Press Conference 3/31/1969" ), The Beatles Ultimate Experience.〕 and explained it more thoroughly in a 14 June 1969 interview with David Frost.〔("Television: John Lennon and Yoko Ono on The David Frost Show" ), The Beatles' Bible.〕 Bagism reflected the whimsical, carefree, and often comedic mood of John and Yoko's other peace efforts, such as their Bed-Ins. By catching the attention of the masses with its outlandish premise, bagism presented a powerful social and political message to the world. As Lennon stated, "Yoko and I are quite willing to be the world's clowns; if by doing it we do some good."〔("John Lennon - Bagism" ) Excerpt from the documentary ''Imagine: John Lennon'', (1988), YouTube.〕
