Steve DeAngelo, the founder of America’s largest medical marijuana dispensary, Harborside Health Center, and a longtime activist for cannabis legalization, has released his new book, “The Cannabis Manifesto: A New Paradigm for Wellness“. Our Ngaio Bealum sat down with DeAngelo for a video interview; I spoke with DeAngelo yesterday on my live radio stream and podcast.
I asked DeAngelo if this “paradigm for wellness” was just a new take on Dennis Peron’s old line that “all use is medical”; how DeAngelo feels about the Ohio legalization initiative that restricts commercial growing to ten campaign investors; and DeAngelo’s opinion on the use of words like “marijuana”, “pot”, and “weed”.
