Free Range Longmont is produced by a group of Longmont citizens who are deeply concerned about the direction of local as well as national politics. We intend to showcase the Progressive viewpoint to expose bias of any kind in other local media. We are a volunteer organization and always looking for new writers. Use our contact page to get in touch and apply for author designation. We’ll post any progressive news story or letter that other outlets won’t – send it to us first!

I am a progressive, beginning with Eugene McCarthy for President. I am very glad to see a progressive center open so close to where I live at 6th and Emery. After Macalester College and a liberal Theological Seminary and a year of poetry writing grad school at UMass,I was moved to join the Labor Movement as a custodian at the St.Vrain schools. We eventually joined Afl-CIO. Now retired(graduated), my primary focus will be to write more poems. I am a widely published poet,and worked with Robert Bly, who is both a progressive and a poet.
