How One of the Reddest States Became the Nation’s Hottest Weed Market - POLITICO
This is a really long read that bust a number of stereotypes for me. At the same time, it encapsulates so many of the various threads that we have on the board into one story when it comes to politics, economics, race, allowing people freedom of choice etc.

And until a colored man is a full citizen, like me, I haven’t the leisure to enjoy the freedom that colored man risked his life to maintain for me. I don’t own what I have until he owns an equal share of it. Until somebody beats me and blinds me, I am in his debt."- Orson Welles August 11, 1946 |
