Easy Rider was powerful because for at least 4 years before it, there was a rising sense of "us vs. them" in society. And this was a movie made from the "us" perspective for a big part of the population. Funny thing is, a lot of "them" found watching the movie to be a mind-opening experience.

Like a lot of other things, you just had to be there.
