East Bay Express, 23 Jan 2013 – The movers and shakers of the cannabis legalization movement are gathering in San Francisco to plot a plan for the future. About three hundred activists – the people who likely will operate and staff the next legalization effort in California in 2016 – will gather with their allies at San Francisco’s Fort Mason Center this weekend for a pivotal meeting on the future of freeing the herb. "Cannabis in California: Ending the 100-Year War," sponsored by the California chapter of the National Organization for the Reform of Marijuana Laws, will pack eleven strategy sessions over two days with the rock stars of the reform community, including Colorado Amendment 64 campaign co-director Mason Tvert; Washington Initiative 502 director Alison Holcomb; the leaders of Marijuana Policy Project, Drug Policy Alliance, and NORML – as well as major dispensary operators, union organizers, and pioneers in the movement.
