Founded on the principal of “Free Land for Free People,” by an anarchist group protesting American imperialism, racism, capitalism, and patriarchy, Black Bear Ranch is grappling with how best to uphold their values. An open letter published in 2017 by former Black Bear residents, called on the community to return Ranch land to the indigenous peoples of the Karuk, Hoopa, Yurok, Konomihu, and Shasta. Since the letter, the stated purpose of Black Bear Ranch has shifted from communal living towards ecological stewardship.
