Equality Colony

Equality Colony was a United States socialist colony founded in Skagit County, Washington by the socialist Brotherhood of the Cooperative Commonwealth in 1897. It was meant to serve as a model that would lead to the conversion of the rest of Washington, and later the entire continent, to socialism. It survived for a few years as a Edward Bellamy-inspired intentional community but succumbed to internal divisions in 1907.
