I have been with the armies of all the belligerents except one, and I have seen men die, and go mad, and lie in hospitals suffering hell; but there is a worse thing than that. War means ugly mob-madness, crucifying the truth-tellers, choking the artists, side-tracking reforms, revolutions and the work- ing of social forces.” -John Reed in the Musses, April, 1917. “Whose war is this? Not mine. I know that hundreds of thousands of American workingmen employed by our great finan- cial ‘patriots’ are not paid a living wage. I have seen poor men sent to jail for long terms without trial, and even without any charge. Peaceful strikers, and their wives and children, have been shot to death, burned to death, by private detectives and militiamen.

  • The Commune Movement During the 1960S and the 1970S in Britain, Denmark and The
    The Commune Movement during the 1960s and the 1970s in Britain, Denmark and the United States Sangdon Lee Submitted in accordance with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy The University of Leeds School of History September 2016 i The candidate confirms that the work submitted is his own and that appropriate credit has been given where reference has been made to the work of others. This copy has been supplied on the understanding that it is copyright material and that no quotation from the thesis may be published without proper acknowledgement ⓒ 2016 The University of Leeds and Sangdon Lee The right of Sangdon Lee to be identified as Author of this work has been asserted by him in accordance with the Copyright, Designs and Patents Act 1988 ii Abstract The communal revival that began in the mid-1960s developed into a new mode of activism, ‘communal activism’ or the ‘commune movement’, forming its own politics, lifestyle and ideology. Communal activism spread and flourished until the mid-1970s in many parts of the world. To analyse this global phenomenon, this thesis explores the similarities and differences between the commune movements of Denmark, UK and the US. By examining the motivations for the communal revival, links with 1960s radicalism, communes’ praxis and outward-facing activities, and the crisis within the commune movement and responses to it, this thesis places communal activism within the context of wider social movements for social change. Challenging existing interpretations which have understood the communal revival as an alternative living experiment to the nuclear family, or as a smaller part of the counter-culture, this thesis argues that the commune participants created varied and new experiments for a total revolution against the prevailing social order and its dominant values and institutions, including the patriarchal family and capitalism.

  • Choices to Say This Is a Book About
    ...................................... INTRODUCTION Some keep the Sabbath going to church; I keep it staying at home. Emily Dickinson The center of life routine is surrounded by a circumference of choice. Helen and Scott Nearing, Living the Good Life Choices To say this is a book about American religion is—to borrow a phrase from Emily Dickinson—to tell the truth but “tell it slant.” It is a book about choices and ne- gotiating the circumference of choice. It is a book about people who have cho- sen to be self-conscious about their lives and to shape life with less attention to economic livelihood and more attention to living itself. The problem of living, of course, is ultimately wrapped up in the problem of meaning, the question of how to render one’s life experiences meaningful and meaning filled. For some, this is a philosophical question; for many, it is also a religious and spiritual one. The problem of meaning and the problem of living are seldom defined or en- acted in the same way. In the early 1930s, the socialist Scott Nearing faced the dilemma of being a public intellectual whose political and antiwar views had caused him to be blacklisted by universities and publishing houses. In the 1920s, Ralph Borsodi fled his job as an advertising executive for Macy’s and sought to bring the United States out of impending “material barbarism.”1 More recently, Wendell Berry sampled and then rejected a literary life in New York, San Francisco, and Paris, choosing, in 1965, to return home to Kentucky and to daily labor as a farmer and writer.

  • Anarchists in Grand Rapids, Vol. 3
    Mob Work: Anarchists in Grand Rapids is a four volume exploration of the his- tory of anarchists in Grand Rapids, Michigan. While a mid-sized town with a reputation for conservative views, below the surface Grand Rapids has a history of radicalism that has largely gone unexplored. Part of that history includes the presence of anarchists active in a number of different ways since the 1880s. An- archist activity has often connected to what anarchists have been doing in the MOB WORK larger U.S. context and as such this history situates Grand Rapids anarchists in larger national trends. ANARCHISTS IN GRAND RAPIDS, VOL. 3 In this third volume of Mob Work, topics include Charles Bergman, an anarchist who organized visits for Emma Goldman and printed thousands of copies of a pamphlet called “State Socialism and Anarchism,” the repression of radicals and anarchists in Grand Rapids during World War I and the years following the War’s conclusion, the emergence of “anarchistic” counter-cultural and political currents in the 1960s, the underground press in Grand Rapids, and the anti-war movement. Along with this, there is an overview of what was happening nationally within the anarchist space during the period from World War I to the 1960s, as well as the increased visibility of anarchism on a national scale during the 1960s. ...from the occupied territory currently known as grand rapids, michigan for more zines and correspondence, visit www.sproutdistro.com 44 1 2 43 Superficial minds speak sneeringly of destruction.
