Music and 2003 cannabis rally wrapup. Photos.
Music drew big crowds at Buenos Aires and Prague MMM events in early May 2003, and at Seattle Hempfest in August 2003. After the links below there follow some Buenos Aires photos and reports from the May 2003 MMM. Including photos of the Buenos Aires music stage, and the MMM/drug reform speakers and T-shirts on that stage. Million Marijuana March events occurred in around 236 MMM cities worldwide in May 2003!
185,000 people rallied in August 2003 in Seattle, Washington! Music seems to be a big factor in drawing big crowds. Thousands were drawn by music at the May 2003 MMM in Prague in the Czech Republic. 12,000 came to the Buenos Aires MMM 2003 in Argentina. Much to learn from the article and photo links just below. Seattle Hempfest history since 1991. Some Prague MMM 2003 photos (need working links to the evening music stage photos). First link below is a compilation of Seattle Hempfest history since 1991.

According to the daily Página 12 in Buenos Aires, the rally to legalize marijuana in that city drew 12,000 people. ... In Buenos Aires, speaking to the multitude in the Rosedal de Palermo park, Gustavo Hurtado of ARDA (Harm Reduction Association of Argentina) said:
“The repressive policies [of drug prohibition], the prosecution of personal possession of small amounts of drugs as a serious crime, and makes drug users into criminals. This keeps them out of the healthcare system and only increases the potential for harm and the risks of HIV/AIDS transmission.”
Like many policies pursued by the US administration, he said, drug prohibition is an “irrational aggression.” The central message of the Buenos Aires march, said Hurtado, was to “say no to the war on drugs, and say no to the war on drug users.”
