Long before Ripon became a landmark in American political history, another revolution was already taking shape on this soil.
A revolution of ideas.
Tonight, AJ the Ripon Rabbit uncovers the forgotten story of Warren Chase, Ceresco, the Wisconsin Phalanx, Francis Fourier, Andrew Jackson Davis, and the strange world of mesmerism, reform, and radical possibility that defined this incredible era.
This was a time when men and women dared to ask dangerous questions:
What if society itself was broken?
What if labor, ownership, family life, and human destiny could all be reimagined?
What if the future of civilization was being tested right here in Wisconsin?
Tonight’s episode explores one of the most fascinating and overlooked chapters in local and American history — where cooperative living, abolitionist energy, spiritual searching, and bold experimentation all came together in one remarkable moment in time. Don’t miss this powerful journey into the hidden roots of Ripon’s past.
