Colorado’s First Black Woman Pot Entrepreneur on Edibles, Incarceration & the Industry’s Whiteness

A big wooow for this plant. Love of plants is a form of ecosexual love. And it’s good to love many plants that heal and bring joy in different ways. I’m so glad the industry is flourishing. It’s great that the shadow of criminality is being lifted.  One sad news is that people who’ve been arrested for pot are now barred from getting into the industry. How could this be fair? These people often gifted others with their pot and took all the risks, including the extra risk of structural racism if they were black. They might have been mentors and initiators. NOW that it’s legal and profitable, the road is closed for them. That’s NOT fair at all!

It’s an interesting industry for one to get involved in.  Where I get my info?  The Democracy Now! segment is available at this link.

Is Mass Incarceration Ecosexual? No!

Is mass incarceration ecosexual?  No.  Is the “war on drugs” ecosexual?  No.

JimCrowWhat is then?  Devotion to the virtues of plants.  Freedom to appreciate their power serenely and with joy.  Awareness of their presence as partners with the lover we all share.  Moderation in their use as medicine.

A new “Jim Crow” is of course not ecosexual, but being aware that it’s happening largely on account of plants is. Awareness of how this affects young people of color, immigrants, their families, and communities under the current police regime is ecosexual as well.

Thanks Michelle Alexander.  Your interview with Democracy Now! is great.  I remember your book and your presentation two years ago in Hartford, CT.  It made me cry, and helped me to understand my own predicament and the predicaments of those I love.

Remember: It’s time to make love the ecology of our life.  It’s time to allow nature to inspire the arts of love.  Namaste,
