Smoke Signals: A Social History of Marijuana - Medical, Recreational and Scientific by Martin A. Lee

4.0

An excellent social history of cannabis in America. Despite it being published before legalization, this book is the best resource to navigating subjects pertaining to policy, stigma, activism, etc. A large focus of the book was centered around anti-cannabis propaganda & racism that was provoked, pushed & backed by the government. Factual, scholarly text that ended up being extremely useful in many situations defending my stance on legalization.
