Referring to marijuana as a "beautiful plant", First Man reflected that Rastafarians has always used it spiritually and economically, which Ras Perty of House of Dread reiterated. "When we say marijuana is a sacrament, it is our right and choice. It is our cultural right to do so," Ras Perty said.
"There are lots of negative stigmatisations about herb. We can prove otherwise," he said. "I still see that there is a very large unawareness of who we are and what our sacrament is to us." He reflected briefly on the repression of Rastafarians, especially in the early 1960s, and said, "We won't stop. We won't forget. And we will never make you forget what was done to us for our own rights."
