  • It's Hip to Unzip Open Land Communes and Their Neighbours
    “It’s Hip to Unzip”: Open Land Communes and Their Neighbours in Northern California, 1966-1979 by John Stuart Miller B.A., The University of British Columbia, 2013 A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF ARTS in THE FACULTY OF GRADUATE AND POSTDOCTORAL STUDIES (History) THE UNIVERSITY OF BRITISH COLUMBIA (Vancouver) December 2016 © John Stuart Miller, 2016 Abstract This essay considers the histories of two countercultural, back-to-the-land communes located in northern California: Siskiyou County’s Black Bear Ranch and Sonoma County’s Morning Star Ranch. Both of these communes were highly influenced by the concept of Open Land, according to which anyone may freely live in a given space, particularly those individuals rejected or alienated by urban modernity. I examine the ways in which these communes related to and were shaped by their rural neighbours, as well as the local state, asserting the importance of the surrounding community in effecting events at each commune. I argue that positive relations with neighbours determined the continued viability of these communes, and that these positive relations in turn required a compromise of original founding principles including Open Land. I further uncover the changing perceptions rural people held of hippie communards, and contextualize the back-to-the-land ideal within broader American traditions of frontier settlement and reinvention. !ii Preface This thesis is entirely the original, unpublished, and independent work of the author, John

  • Interview J. Berman Commune (PDF)
    Interview with Jonathan Berman, Director of COMMUNE How did you get the idea for the film and was there something specific that inspired you? I grew up on Long Island in the 1960’s around that environment. You know just being a kid growing up around the 60’s and 70’s; this environment of the counterculture was always in the air, even in suburbia – maybe especially in suburbia. As I became a teenager I started to get into the music of Jimmy Hendrix and all that, playing keyboards and in rock bands. So I always had that warm feeling towards that whole world as an alternative to us and the bland world of suburban Long Island life. I was always intrigued by that and then was a Deadhead and into various counterculture ideas. The politics attracted me, and so when I was searching for my next project, I met this eccentric producer and was telling him about my film I was planning about barbequing in the Carolinas and he, being a New York no-nonsense eccentric: “I just don’t like that idea” and I said, “Well, what do you like?” because when you find, a co- producer, it is a good thing, and he said, “Well I like things that are off the grid” which literally means off the electric grid, that is alternative culture on the fringe. So that idea of things very much resonated with me, the idea of things being “off the grid.” How did you come into contact with the people of Black Bear Ranch? Well after that night, I did some reading and came across a book on the 60’s communes literally called “The Sixties Communes” by Tim Miller, a professor and read a few pages on Black Bear Ranch and said to myself, “this is it.” I saw Black Bear as the epicenter of all the benevolent anarchy and theatricality and counter culture ideas that speak to me.

  • Salmon River Community Wildfire Protection Plan October 30, 2007 Final
    SALMON RIVER COMMUNITY WILDFIRE PROTECTION PLAN OCTOBER 30, 2007 FINAL PREFACE “The most important aspect of hazardous fuels reduction is reducing the threat to local communities. When it comes to reducing threat, we need to protect communities and help the communities to help themselves through changing the landscape from high risk to low risk. We'll accomplish that by working closely with communities on major projects.” USDA Forest Service Chief, Dale Bosworth From his “Statement on the 2000 National Fire Plan” The Salmon River Community Wildfire Protection Plan (CWPP) has developed a prioritized list of projects to focus and guide implementing landowners, organizations and funders. A key product of this Plan is the development of wildfire safety zones to reduce citizen and firefighter risks from future large wildfires. This project list consists of structure protection needs, prevention measures, pre-treatment and shaded fuelbreak construction to protect life and property in towns, residential areas, emergency access areas, and private/public interface areas. Other activities, such as adequate accessible water systems, plantation thinning, underburning, and natural fire management will be recommended. This Plan will also make recommendations that homeowners and communities can take to reduce the ignitability of structures throughout the Salmon River Watershed. The Plan will contain a Suppression Response plan and updating of the Residential Risk Assessment for Structures, Improvements and Wildfire readiness. The Salmon River Fire Safe Council (FSC) is sponsoring the development of this project. Cooperators on the FSC include community members, the U.S. Forest Service, California Department of Forestry, other managing agencies, the Karuk Tribe, the Salmon River Volunteer Fire and Rescue (SRFR), the Orleans/Somes Bar Fire Safe Council, and the Salmon River Restoration Council (SRRC).

  • Time in De-Tension: Some Northern California Experiments in Open Land Sarah A
    Fig. 4-1 time in de-tension: Some Northern California Experiments in Open Land Sarah A. Lewison In October1968, Lou Gottlieb, owner of 31 acres north of San Francis- co went before his local Board of Supervisors to offer his property to the people of Sonoma County “as an experiment in living.” In his presenta- tion, Gottlieb elaborated on the advantages of “Land Access To Which Is Denied No One.” He argued that free access to land would reduce the problem of human conflict, by eliminating “the territorial imperative,” and asked Supervisors to support a study to decide conditions of the county’s acceptance of the land. Continuing, Gottlieb described “a new town that would be designed by the people who live in it and marked by folk archi- tecture.”1 Failing to convince the County of the benefits of this bequest, in spring of the next year, Gottlieb transferred the property directly to God through a legitimate deed signed at the Sonoma County Recorder’s office. This delirious episode in ideological philanthropy is documented in Home Free Home, Ramon Bayaron Sender’s online book about two 60s open land communes2 - Morningstar and Wheeler’s Ranch3. Through interviews and anecdotes, former residents describe a period of time without social or economic rules or boundaries. Their experience at these “open-door” communes carried such impact that, over 30 years later, com- mune members maintain ties through a list-serve that provides a stream of conversation on present day concerns: politics, spirituality, healthcare and open land.4 Their accounts of self-organized rural life meet and exceed the stereotypes of Northern California hippie culture preserved by period pho- tojournalism: long-hair, ‘free’ sex, hallucinogens, hedonism and hepatitis.
