Jack Herer
On the front lines of the War on Marijuana for almost 40 years ... revered for saving hemp from oblivion with his 1985 underground classic "The Emperor Wears No Clothes," which the San Francisco Bay Guardian calls "the most popular pro-decrim book in the history of modern prohibition" ... now in his mid-sixties, Jack Herer remains in the trenches despite suffering a major stroke in July 2000 ... also famous for a strain of pot bearing his name (mighty fine strain, so we’re told).

"Hemp for Victory"
Special DVD Bonus Feature. This 1942 U.S. government propaganda newsreel urged American farmers to grow the illegal hemp plant to help the war effort. Patriotic then ... handcuffs today ... go figure ... until Jack Herer authenticated the film in 1988, the federal government had denied its existence ... today wishes it had never been made. Uncle Sam, your hyprocrisy's showing. 14 minutes.
