The Culture High

I just discovered www.kickstarter.com and was scrolling through the projects that people are trying to get funding for when SR arrived. Of course he knew of the site and not only knew of it but showed me his friend's request on this site. He and his crew made a follow-up documentary to The Union: The Business Behind Getting High. As stated on Kickstarter, "Simply put, we want to get the film out to as many people as possible. It is a film with a universal message, but Hollywood is telling us the audience doesn't want this kind of film on the big screen or a mainstream release, this is OUR chance to prove them WRONG!", thus the reason for their search for funding. Below is the video explaining their need for assistance. P.S.: I should clarify that the request ended August 3rd. Their goal was $190,000 and they received $240,022. They were successful. So now you can keep an eye open to viewing this documentary.
