We recently screened The True History of Marijuana (Chapter 4), Weed: A Special Investigation, Hempsters, and The Union — films that outline how a crop (industrial hemp), so vital to the founding of the United States as a country, has been demonized only to control the cultivation and distribution of a relative crop (marijuana). We have seen what alienating industrial hemp from the farmer has done to the oceans and the worldβs waterways. We have seen how alienating (and demonizing) this crop actually works against the agricultural, plastics, fuel, and paper industries. Finally, we have witnessed the many functions of a safer plant, faster growing than trees and more sustainable than the fossil fuels currently used for petrochemicals.
