What is the origin of the 60s term "be-in"?

Asked by polecat12 (9points) January 8th, 2021

‘Be in’ was a spontaneous event, usually musical, but soon it became a way of announcing almost anything. I covered as a reporter quite a few. Vancouver was a busy counter culture spot so there were plenty. Always with a public health van there in anticipation of drug overdoses or any medical emergency. Is the phrase as obvious as it could be, or not?
