107. The Book on Jack Herer
Update: 2020-05-05
Description
Dan Herer’s father crashed the hemp movement into existence with his self-published 1985 book The Emperor Wears No Clothes. A new ebook edition is out, and the pioneer’s son explains why hemp’s sacred text is more relevant than ever.
- A post-divorce convert to cannabis, Jack Herer clashed with the established legalization movement
- In 1980, the senior Herer was cited for “violation of the sedition” act for protesting pot prohibition and served 15 days in federal prison. It was there that he wrote the book, which was published on news print.
- When a fan developed the “Jack Herer” strain, the man himself was present
