This quote is not from this decade, I have removed the specific cause that was being advocated for at the time. Do you know what/when it was? This movement had reached its tipping point where grass roots groups needed to get organized. I think this applies to us now too. That alone is a sign of the times, cause for celebration, and incentive to take these next steps to ensure our success. Please support your local drug policy reform organizations, just search for them, there may be one that you dont even know is out there. Ask questions, start conversations, be respectful and take an educational approach... WIN. ...the nature of the movement is necessarily changing. Consciousness-raising as the main function of the movement is becoming obsolete. Due to the intense press publicity of the last two years and the numerous overground books and articles now being circulated, [marijuana legalization] has become a household [term]. Its issues are discussed and informal rap groups are formed by people who have no explicit connection with any movement group. The movement must go on to other tasks. It now needs to establish its priorities, articulate its goals, and pursue its objectives in a coordinated fashion. To do this it must get organized -- locally, regionally, and nationally.
