September 8, 2014 – The disastrous legacy of the war on marijuana will be addressed at a press conference to mark the 100th anniversary of the nation\u2019s first \u201cmarihuana\u201d raid in LA\u2019s Mexican Sonoratown neighborhood (pictured) on Thursday, Sept 11 at 10 am. at LA City Hall, Spring Street Steps.<\/p>\n

The raid was the opening shot in a hundred years\u2019 war that has seen over 2.7 million Californians arrested for victimless marijuana crimes, with a disproportionately great impact on minorities.<\/p>\n
