Dana Beal is out of Jail - Freedom for all Friends of Cannabis!

Dana Beal, lifetime Cannabis liberation and US antiwar activist has just been released from Jail, following a solidarity campaign that involved thousands of people, primarily self-organized online with generous and timely initiatives by Aron Kay (thank you Aron!) The page of supporters on Facebook, titled FREE DANA BEAL FREE OURSELVES has more than 1200 members.

Dana is a co-founder of the Yippies, comrade of notable revolutionary activists such as Abbie Hoffman, Jerry Rubin and Stu Albert, and he is the "superpower", mastermind and initiator of the Global Marijuana March campaign that sees annual gatherings and protests by thousands of Friends of Cannabis in several hundreds of cities around the planet every MayDay.

We're happy to report that Dana is out of Jail and free to continue his legal defence stemming from an arrest and a bizzarre case against him and two others, where the Judge ordered him held against bail of a half a million dollars... a few more details at the links below.

Please have a look at the relevant information on this page - any financial contributions for Dana's legal defence fund can be sent either by arrangements with Aron Kay in New York, phone number:
