Has everyone heard of 'Post Secrets'? Well, check it out at http://postsecret.blogspot.com/
Straight from their website, 'PostSecret is an ongoing community art project where people mail in their secrets anonymously on one side of a postcard.'
The postcards are some of the most emotionally touching and revealing pieces ever seen.
The project envisioned here, with Pot Secrets, borrows the idea of anonymous postcards as the tool by which a message is spread, but with a common theme; you guessed it! Marijuana and its associated culture!
If the common assumption is correct, then there are more potsmokers than meets the eye, yet many of us feel that it's dangerous to reveal our toker-identities for fear of being barred from/losing jobs, from being professionally stigmatized, let alone from the fear of being physically assaulted and punished by state law authorities.
Pot Secrets offers an opportunity for individuals to 'confess' to their 'second citizenship' in creative ways that don't betray more of their identities than they would wish to.
If one has a postcard-secret which they'd like to share, please email it to endprohibitionwaterloo@gmail.com. A snail-mail address will emerge soon.
