Rainbow Gathering 2003 and abolition in the National Park Service and National Forest Service (out west?) (see below)


Henry Cutter, writer - 

Sounds good but unfortunate not to be able to get to the full event. Some people are in the forest but access is blocked?


Scott MacLeod -  

When I drove to the Bog Dam road from York Pond road into the White Mountain national forest on Saturday afternoon July 1, there were  nearly 10 law enforcement vehicles parked there, and no colorful Rainbow people whatsoever, unlike in 2008, 2009 and 2011, so I turned around to think about this unusual development with the Rainbow Gathering, in national parks (since 1972). Some online news' articles about this could be lampoons even ... so I wonder how many of the possibly ~8000 Rainbow people who attend such gatherings on average possibly, are at this New England Gathering. Will blog about it today, Henry ... HI from near Stewartstown, NH, Beecher Falls, VT and the Canadian border :) (http://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/search/label/Rainbow%20Gathering?m=0:)

This Forest Service / #RainbowGathering impasse probably happens every year: there's quite a law enforcement presence near the way in re Bog Dam & Kilkenny Loop Rds #MilanNH entrance. Any other ways into #RainbowGathering2003 #WhiteMountainNationalForest from other directions?

Thanks, Stuart,


... Heading into the Rainbow Gathering near Bog Dam Road 15 from the Androscoggins' Ranger District where I am with wifi presently ... I have some interest in spending all 7 days at the Gathering but am planning to meet you on Monday morning at Weeks' state park  potentially ...  Is that happening ? Perhaps we can talk  then about the Concord happening. Not sure about wifi access ahead ... 

Kind regards, Scott

Hi Stuart,


Thanks ... Will see what emerges with the Rainbow gathering ... If something develops in this Rainbow celebration week,  I may remain in the forest Monday morning and try to let you know beforehand. The whole reason I've come to New England is for the Rainbow Gathering ... and regarding MIT OCW-centric wiki World Univ & Sch  connecting too. 

Come into the Gathering on Monday? 

Friendly regards, abolitionally, best wishes, Scott 



Thanks, Stuart, 

With a large law enforcement presence on the way into the Rainbow Gathering, I think I'll plan to meet you on Monday at 10am.

Namaste, 
Scott


PS
Just inquired with a fellow ethnographer / anthropologist, Michael I Niman, and one who wrote an ethnography of the Rainbow Gathering published in 2011, if there might be other ways in to the Rainbow Gathering in the White Mountains' National Forest ... but one of Forest Service web sites, as good as Rainbows can be in the woods, said the incident may peak on the 4th of July (and could this mean the Forest Service is planning something?) ... 


Hi Michael, 

Nice to e-meet you here. And greetings from near Gorham NH and the site I've heard about for the Rainbow Gathering 2003. 

Thanks for writing "People of the Rainbow: A Nomadic Utopia" (2nd edition 2011 - Univ. of Tennessee Press), which I've looked through, and blogged about too (https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2009/04/blue-bell-tunicate-modes-of-thinking.html and https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2010/10/sri-lanka-rock-actual-virtual-harbin.html and https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2015/07/magnolia-henryi-harbin-hot-springs.html and https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2015/07/syzygium-harbin-hot-springs-book.html). I've written an ethnography of Actual-Virtual Harbin Hot Springs in northern California, "Naked Harbin Ethnography," which like the Rainbow Gathering got its current start in 1972, a time I'm interested in scholarly too, and refer to your book in it. 

There's quite a law enforcement presence near the first entrance onto Bog Dam Road from York Pond Road, and near the corner of Rte 110 / Milan Road and York Pond Road, such that I turned back just before it, having intended to head to the Rainbow Gathering this year, coming 12 hours from Pittsburgh, PA. This Forest Service / Rainbow Gathering drama or impasse probably happens every year. Any other ways into the Rainbow Gathering from other directions? Any Rainbow Gathering communication emailings I might somehow join please, that you know of?

I'd like to further write ethnographically about the Rainbow Gathering in 2023, where I've also written about the 2008, 2009, and 2011 Rainbow Gatherings that I've been to.

Thanks. Unlike the 3 Rainbow Gatherings that I've been to, there are no Rainbow people whatsoever that I've seen anywhere in the area interestingly.

I'd be most grateful if you could let me know where Rainbows might be gathering in the area of the White Mountain National Park or New Hampshire or similar ... as an alternative to the site here - 

Rainbow regards, Scott

Rainbow Gathering 2003 and abolition in the National Park Service and National Forest Service (out west?) 

Hi Ma! Glad that all is well there. Greetings from near Henry Cutter's place whose house is getting a new foundation! In World Univ & Sch and myself growing an abolition movement and even regarding the National Park Service and National Forest Service out west too (tragically from what I gleaned from Reedies in the NPS candace lieber and peter lieber (shady side academy alum?) her partner, and friend Tym Lenderking and on Cuttyhunk too - abolish modern slavery re the illegal sex industry by the US federal government  - all re federal law) there were many NFS and New Hampshire law enforcement vehicles at a way into the Rainbow gathering, and I think the Gathering this year may be happening in smaller regional gatherings around the USA. Stuart-Sinclair Weeks with a warm welcome  has invited me to a number of Center for American Studies events some with native Americans in Weeks state park here nearby in NH on Monday and in Concord MA over the 4th of July. Thanks for saying "Glad you're still alive" to me on Thursday at Longwood - and could you have been talking with Sandy echoing him - re protecting me from Dad's possible psychopathic behavior in the early 2000s and per -  http://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2023/06/mimosa-national-flower-of-abkhazia.html ... Glad too I'm getting a number of Pinterest messages - from Pin? indirectly and as a feedback loop? - that my home feed is looking good etc re Canyon 94516 and federal & state law too ? What's up with my Cuttyhunk home and community I wonder too - and living in asylum in PA from CA and due to the illegal sex and drug industries and their latent networks of violence?  Am not sure ... Hoping to potentially connect with DL MD when I head west or before even on Cuttyhunk in August - to become talking friends. Sending love, Scott ❤️ (5G hotspot smartphone signal to computer laptop is working alright ... Will try to make this blog post about my still being alive re Dad too more readable -  http://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2023/06/mimosa-national-flower-of-abkhazia.html ...) Love, ❤️, Scott
