Cannabis by Brian "Box" Brown
The Illegalization of Marijuana in America
A compact, illustrated history that traces cannabis from its agricultural and industrial uses through the political, racial, and economic forces that turned it into a criminalized substance, recounting early 20th-century propaganda and policing, the escalation of punitive drug policy and mass incarceration in the late 20th century, and the more recent shifts toward medical use, decriminalization, and commercialization while highlighting the human and social costs of prohibition.
