This week DRCNet continues our series of interviews with prominent participants in the "Out from the Shadows" Latin America summit and campaign. We interview Dr. Gustavo de Greiff, former attorney general of the nation of Colombia and a member of the conference steering committee; Luis Gómez, Andean correspondent for Narco News; and Ricardo Sala of the Mexico City-based vivecondrogas.com.

Keep checking the Week Online and the Out from the Shadows conference web pages -- http://www.stopthedrugwar.org/shadows/ (English) and http://www.stopthedrugwar.org/sombras/ (Español) for more interviews between now and the conference and thereafter -- and if you haven't read our Shadows interviews in the last two issues, you can check them out in the archives at:
