The reason was that an alarming number of consumers were eating out rather than at home more often due to rising family incomes and increase of women in the workforce.

Commune, made by filmmaker Jonathan Berman, is a documentary about the beginnings and risings of Black Bear Ranch in 1968. The commune was created in response to the high amounts of injustice, protesting, and desire for change. Although there were many communes at the time, Black Bear Ranch was special due the large amounts of film and photographs that were taken there, in the early 70’s. In my opinion, the most important point that the director was trying to portray in the film was the reality of commune life; not the romanticized, Woodstock, granola hippy shit that most people think about when they think about the 70’s. Cedar described his first encounter with Black Bear men as not your typical Haight street hippies.

Germania was the Roman and Greek word for the region in northern Europe inhabited mainly by Teutonic Suebians or Gothic peoples. It stretches from the Danube to the Baltic Sea, and from the Rhine in the west to the Vistula.
