Root Boy Slim said: "Ignite It!" Partly as homage to reggae music and partly as a musical reply to the people who attend the Smoke-In. Held on July 4th in Washington DC for the past 35 years, this rally, march and concert is one of the oldest demonstrations advocating drug policy reform in the United States. The Smoke-In has undergone several changes during its lifetime since being born out of the BE-IN era of political movements. Politicians in Washington view this demonstration as a youthful indiscretion at best, and tend to ignore the event. But this grass roots demonstration has an indelible appeal to the people who attend it by unleashing the pride and empowerment of being a marijuana activist. Many thanks to the people involved in producing this demonstration year after year. Please support the artists heard on this recording who have donated their time & talent. They truly deserve credit for my dedication to the belief that some day marijuana prohibition shall end.
See ya' on the Fourth of July!
