A New Dawn for the New LeftLovejoy’s Nuclear War

A New Dawn for the New Left: Lovejoy’s Nuclear War [The winter of 1973–1974 passed like any other at Montague Farm: the autumn harvest had provided a bounty of produce now canned and preserved; snow blanketed the land; and the busy season of physical labor gave way to quiet months of introspection.

Less than three miles from the farm, a 500-foot aluminum alloy tower pierced the skyline, emitting a pulsating strobe of white light visible for up to seventeen miles in every direction.

Abstract

[The winter of 1973–1974 passed like any other at Montague Farm: the autumn harvest had provided a bounty of produce now canned and preserved; snow blanketed the land; and the busy season of physical labor gave way to quiet months of introspection. One detail, however, scarred Montague Farm’s physical and psychic landscape. Less than three miles from the farm, a 500-foot aluminum alloy tower pierced the skyline, emitting a pulsating strobe of white light visible for up to seventeen miles in every direction. When communard Sam Lovejoy first saw the tower upon returning from a trip to the Pacific Northwest, he turned to Dan Keller and said, “Someone’s gotta knock that thing down.”1]
