A few hundred people marched through Cape Town this morning, demanding that dagga be legalised.


The protest proceeded down Darling Street. It was a potpourri of people across class, race and gender.

The event was organised by Fields of Green for All and Bongalong.


Some participants weren’t waiting for the law to change.
