Smuggler's Blues - The war on plants

[Medecineman]

"The primary motivation for me was to keep America high and thereby defy the government's drug laws and prove them as wrong and dishonest. We were activists; we realized the government was lying about pot, and that led us to disbelieve so much of what they told us about race, about the war in Vietnam, about political assassination, and about the war on drugs. And, ultimately, as has been proven, we were right and they were lying to the American people about pot, about the war in Vietnam, about race—it's all connected."

"This is to help readers understand how we got to where we are now. I think that makes it valuable to the young people who don't know that history, who don't know what it was like to live during those insane and intense outlaw years in marijuana's story. They don't know how marijuana became as popular as it is in this country or that it became popular because there were outlaws who were willing to risk their lives, willing to risk their freedom to keep America high."
