SUMMARY: Return to the Land (RTTL), a whites-only private community expanding to Missouri, is facing controversy. Co-founder Peter Csere, formerly part of an Ecuador vegan community Fruit Haven, was involved in a violent incident with illegal miners, claiming self-defense amid accusations of stabbing and financial misuse. Csere left Ecuador in 2023, citing moral and governmental issues. RTTL requires criminal background checks and denies condoning violence. Local Springfield leaders and the NAACP strongly condemn RTTL’s segregationist stance, calling it divisive and contrary to values of inclusion and racial equality. Officials urge opposition to any efforts promoting racial segregation in the community.
