Judge halts recreational marijuana licensing in Detroit over ‘likely unconstitutional’ ordinance

A district court judge ruled Thursday to halt the granting of recreational marijuana licenses in the city of Detroit over an ordinance that allegedly favors certain Detroit residents over other applicants.

Biden's menthol cigarette prohibition is so obviously stupid and wrong it boggles the mind

Just like the failed and evil War on Drugs, a ban on menthols is a gift to criminals and will lead to harsh policing in Black communities.

Let's jazz up our Black History Month with some cannabis

For better and mostly for worse, due to prohibition and the War on Drugs and more, marijuana has been tied to communities of color. But there is one shining example of marijuana being a huge positive influence: jazz.Jazz has been recognized as America's only original art form. Louis Armstrong, the first American jazz superstar, used marijuana. Caribbean immigrants largely entered the country through New Orleans and in the early 1900s brought their weed with them. But none of them has been declared America's only original art form.Jazz is... and as I said, those folks was getting high.

Washtenaw County Prosecutor: No more charges in cannabis, psychedelic plant cases

Marijuana plants are pictured at the Baker's marijuana nursery at Baker Medical Wednesday, Feb. 26, 2020, in Oklahoma City. (AP Photo/Sue Ogrocki)ANN ARBOR – Washtenaw County Prosecutor Eli Savit announced Tuesday that his office will no longer bring charges in cases related to marijuana or entheogenic plant use, possession or small-scale distribution. Today, I’m pleased to announce that we'll no longer be charging cases related to marijuana or entheogenic plants (naturally occurring psychedelics). If Washtenaw County’s largest city’s resolution decriminalized the use, growth and possession of psychedelic plants, the Prosecutor’s Office sees no point in bringing charges forward elsewhere in the county. For that reason, we will no longer be contesting expungement for marijuana or entheogenic-related offenses.”See the full policy directives for cannabis and marijuana and entheogenic plants.

More needs to be done to stand up for under-represented

Ive since read it and I have to say the movie is heartbreaking but the book even more so. To the point of this article: Not to anyones surprise, but our justice system is broken. As citizens we like to believe our justice system is equal for all. The supposedly well-intentioned War on Drugs has been disproven as more a war on the poor and people of color. We need to be aware of whats happening in our justice system and stand up for the under-represented.
