On April 20th 2011 at 9pm, there is a peaceful protest movement in the name of ending cannabis prohibition. There has been a unique hybrid style of events that have conjured this idea, and there is an interesting back-story to the whole affair.
The aims of the Light Up the Sky protest can be read here on the official blog.
What do you have to do to take part? Well, simply release a biodegradable sky lantern - preferably with a message of protest - into the sky on April 20th at 9pm.
If you do not wish to release a sky lantern, then I urge you to think of your own means in doing something on this date to raise awareness for the end of prohibition. It is for every responsible and civilised adult to act in accordance with their beliefs of what is correct. Light Up the Sky is asking for nothing more than a unity of noise makers, and for a consolidation of efforts in the name of a global & reciprocated cause that has now become the blight of society. Prohibition in the UK is funding a £6billion profiteering racket to the hard-line criminals, cannabis prohibition in the UK & North America is making it easy for children to obtain. Prohibition also directly funds human trafficking.
The law has failed catastrophically, and this reason alone is why I am prepared to place my hand on the gambling table of media manipulation, and I stand by my fellow compatriots who have decided to act in this particular movement. I am a responsible citizen, and I will act as such by supporting - in my humble way - Light Up the Sky on April 20th 2011.
