Hair is a satire of war and the draft, sexual oppression, gender roles and inequality. When they are singing let the sun shine in they are trying to promote people to make changes. I believe the cast going down to the equality march is a perfect example of Hair inspiring people to stand up for what they believed in.
As for Rent, it promoted AIDS awareness and had a message of living life to the fullest. For this I found the connection with Friends in Deed and Broadway Cares as evidence.

Hey everybody!
For my high school senior project I am doing rock musicals and need a little help.
My thesis is: The rock musical is concerned with social issues, inspiring its audience, as well as its actors, to take action. Broadway's two most famous rock musicals, Hair and Rent, have successfully motivated people to rise up against social wrongs.
Here is where you come in.
How have Hair and Rent inspired YOU?
I really appreciate the help! Thanks very much!

Not sure if anybody has seen this but it's Josh Lamon, John Moauro, Kaitlin Kiyan, and Anthony Hollock doing a spoof of Hair for Broadway Bears. I think it's so cute.
