“Farmer and the Felon - the blog” One promise of the newly legal cannabis industry is the opportunity to right many a past wrongs and up the social justice quotient. The Farmer and the Felon Cannabis Co.’s blog certainly does its part to bring a more just world to fruition. These two sentences do an excellent job of illustrating how things can get colored: There is something sinister about taking lyrics out-of-context as a means for a motive, playing up to stereotypes and misunderstanding of hop-hop hyperbole. “If you’re Freddy Mercury, “Mama I killed a man,” is just a killer intro to a classic Queen track. “Killer” in this case would be considered a fun adjective, not an accusation of a real crime. For hip hop, that would never be the case – rap music consistently finds itself on trial.” How about this sentence from the website’s The Cause tag: “Imagine sitting in a cell for years, decades, or even life, convicted of an activity that is no longer a crime, while thousands of other people build intergenerational wealth doing exactly the same thing.” Learn so much more at farmerfelon.com/blog. Let’s all keep on keeping on.

“Breaking Habits” Truth is stranger than fiction and the documentary “Breaking Habits” is proof. This film tells the story of Christine Meeusen, a Reagan-voting corporate executive who turns to God and reinvents herself as cannabis-farming Sister Kate after her philandering husband leaves her penniless—but not broken. Watching is believing, and this roughly 1.5 hours of a documentary will leave audiences somewhere on the spectrum between total disbelief and wanting to join Sister Kate doing the Lord’s work in California’s Central Valley.
