The Vermont Railroad – front page news
The late 1960s, early 70s was a time of political and social transformative activism unlike anything we had previously known as mostly white youth. And we believed we were the seeds of what would culminate in a genuinely grassroots led revolutionary egalitarian participatory democracy. We were the children of the civil rights movement, allies of the Panthers, the Lords, Weather. We were shocked at the imminent destruction of the natural world. During the winter of 1969-70, as we waited to move onto the farm in Franklin, we put out a newsletter announcing who we were, what we believed in, what we envisioned, and who was welcome to join us. The pages that follow are unedited.
