The social activist Sid Rawle, or as the gutter press used to call him, "King of the Hippies", died last week.
In the '60s, he was one of the Hyde Park Diggers commune who were given an island, by John Lennon, off the coast of Ireland to establish an alternative society. He was often on the mic at the Free Festivals, officiating at marriages and funerals, and published International Times for a while. In the '80s he was with the Peace Convoy at the Molesworth peace camp and he's well-known to many in traveler and Green circles.
Our paths crossed quite a few times in the years following the police attack on the Windsor Free Festival in 1974. He was inspiring company.
