When I was working on my 420 article about the simultaneous evolution of the cannabis movement and the hip-hop movement, I had the pleasure of interviewing Karaja Crews, co-owner/founder of Portland’s (and as far as I know the world’s) first hip-hop dispensary, Green Hop. The shop has been open for business for a while, both for sales and for hosting various educational and community building workshops, but will have their official grand opening and a special ribbon cutting ceremony, with Congressman Earl Blumenauer, Mayor Ted Wheeler, and Commissioner Amanda Fritz on-site this Saturday, June 16th.
About The Weed Blog
Since its inception, TWB has been based in activism and the mobilization and movements for marijuana policy reform happening around the country. It was created for one purpose: to facilitate a constructive conversation about marijuana in America. This includes both medical and recreational marijuana policy, as well as the marijuana industry and culture.
