CANNABIS 2001
http://www.worldcamp.org/mmm1_4.htm
NEWS RELEASE April 28, 2001
MORE THAN 1 MILLION PROTEST WORLDWIDE FOR LEGAL MARIJUANA MAY 5th, 2001
Dear Events Editor,
The 2001 Space Odyssey / The MILLION MARIJUANA MARCH is being held this year in over 130 cities worldwide this upcoming Saturday May 5th, 2001. This worldwide event originated in New York City four years ago. Then produced by Cures Not Wars, it has grown to include hundreds of pro marijuana reform organizations across the globe.
May 5th has been designated a universal protest day for those who have had enough of this DRUG WAR and the insidious assault on the international cannabis culture. It is time to end the racism and the hypocrisy. It is time for sanity and reason. It is time to come together. Listed below are the 130 cities and their respective contacts.
For further information call Cures Not Wars at 212-677-7180 or email: cnw@cures-not-wars.org
