Mardigrass<\/a> – 30 Years of Protest for Cannabis Law Reform<\/a>. Documentary by passionate campaigners and educators Cannabis Broadcasting Network<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Local residents of Nimbin have experienced the war on drugs more severely than most communities in Australia. Hippies and counterculture advocates have been settling in the Northern NSW area since the late 60s. NSW Police have weaponised the draconian drug laws to advance their agenda at the cost of local families. Desperate for change, in 1992, local resident, Bob Hopkins marched down the main street of Nimbin equipped with a bass drum and a megaphone, he made history by protesting for Cannabis law reform in Australia. Since then, the rally has become known as \u201cMardiGrass<\/em>\u201d and has been held every year on the first weekend in May.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Do Black Lives Matter?
Tyrone, a homeless Aboriginal boy is arrested by the LAW\u2026
Again!
But this time\u2026
It\u2019s going to take his uncle Lucky\u2019s traditional LORE to fix the mess.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bastard<\/em>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Two lives\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n

One has a chauffeur, limousine, personal assistant, two mobile phones and millions in over draft. The other has no job, no luck, no money and a bucket full of fish.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Together they strike a chord\u2026 Aboriginal, black Australia and white, non-indigenous Australia rarely find each other in the same neighborhood let alone the same time zone. By taking some time out, to relax and have a medicinal toke, because they\u2019re both having a \u201cBastard\u201d of a day!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Jacky and Harry bridge the apparent gap between their lives and find an unexpected moment of connection.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
