Saying Goodbye To The Kojo Nnamdi Show
On this last episode, we look back on 23 years of joyous, difficult and always informative conversation.
Earlier this year, the Obama administration signaled a change in federal enforcement policy towards medical marijuana — or so thought many advocates. So many were surprised when a U.S. Attorney’s office in California opted to aggressively pursue a case against a marijuana dispensary owner. We examine the uncertain terrain of medical marijuana, and what happens when state and federal laws conflict.
