Fine 1983 World Cannabis March on the U.N. Poster

World Cannabis March on the U.N. To Repeal the "Single Convention" (U.N. Treaty Against Cannabis) & Protest Reagan's Diversion of Enforcement rom Heroin & Hard Drugs

DESCRIPTION: Original, scarce, World Cannabis March on the U.N. poster on good-quality newsprint from a Yipster underground newspaper. The "World Cannabis March", sponsored by the 5th Avenue Pot Parade Coalition, featured speakers, a holistic massage workshop, and reggae music.

Purpose was to advertise a protest parade in New York City against the Reagan Administration's policies on cannabis. Reagan's policies diverted funds from the enforcement of hard drug laws to enforcement of the marijuana statutes, considered by many at the time to be a less harmful "soft" drug.

The march was scheduled to start at 11 A.M. May 7, 1983 at Washington Square Park in New York City.
