People’s Park: A Discussion

Proud Public Park Purveyors

There’s nothing better on a nice day than to sit outside in a public park, and relax amongst the trees with fellow park goers. But what if you couldn’t do that? What if all those paradises were paved to make way for parking lots like in that song? Join David Cash, author of People’s Park: Birth and Survival, and William Rorabaugh, History Professor at University of Washington and author of American Hippies, as they discuss the creation of Berkeley’s People’s Park and the ideology surrounding public property in the 1960s.
