1967-1993 SPECIAL REPORT: "WHAT HAPPENED TO THE HIPPIES OF HAIGHT-ASHBURY"?

The de facto capital of the hippies, San Francisco's Haight-Ashbury, was in ruins by the end of 1967. The influx of people into the district during the 'Summer of Love' was so high (pardon the pun) that overpopulation and unsanitary habits resulted in the spread of disease as well.

[@jchow5966]

My mom was a hippie in HA… a few years later she moved back to the midwest, attended college and became a beloved 1st grade teacher. She married my dad (he was 10 years iolder than her and not a hippie). She was a wonderful teacher & mother. ☮️💟☮️💟

I spent a few months on The Farm in 1976. It was an authoritarian, verbally abusive, poorly fed scene. They worked hard, but they did not eat nutritious food. They were vegans, but they supplemented their diet with white flour, sugar, and junk food right out of the packages, and Pepsi. You won't get enough nutrition eating like that. When I left, I was diagnosed with anemia, and I really don't think I was the only one. I was shocked at how pink, how neon pink, the cheeks of the white girls outside the Farm were. Later, I realized that was how white people were supposed to work. On the Farm, they were much whiter. Casper white. Typing paper white. That was probably due to anemia.

You buy 50kg. of rice and grow some unions, garlic, herbs, vegetables, fruits, and buy little bottles of ketjap and other taste makers. You can catch some fish, or buy a little meat, cheese, nuts, or a different meat replacement. It's so easy to cook healthy food, but I think a lot of Americans probably can't or don't do home cooking? In the '70s here in Holland there was a lot of macro dynamic foods, and people were very skinny and didn't have too much colour either. Later on they probably went back to the old fashioned potatoes, vegetables, gravy, and meat (and a little porridge or yoghurt as desert) Simple food, and it makes you feel very strong and healthy! We have these one-pan-dishes too (stamppot ) like potatoes with vegetables and cheese (or with meat) all stamped to a big mush, with some jus or sauce. Mmmm... nice healthy food for dark and cold winters! :)

My mom did her college dissertation on the Farm back in the mid 70's. She took me with her when she went for her research trips and I fell in love with the communal living mentality. I am sure the malnourishment and control were a real thing but I did not see this as a child. All I saw was individualists caring for other individualists. It gave me the knowledge that all paths are equal and there is a way to live without working ourselves to death for the corporate greed!!!

The Haight-Ashbury district in San Francisco is a tourist attraction now. There are young people today who are poor and homeless or nearly so who come to S.F. seeking the life they heard about decades ago. Many work low-paying jobs in retail establishments. Some of them are still experimenting with communal living, dumpster diving for food, creating communal gardens, and scavenging for discards of clothing or other usable items on the street, such as furniture or cookware. Lots of them are still hoping for a mythical Marxian utopian vision of yesteryear.
