245. Marijuana Minister: Celebrating Pride With Stereotypes Podcast
Manage episode 423009861 series 2573669
This month, we are celebrating Pride with a brand new series! We’ll explore how the 1980s AIDS crisis in San Francisco led to the birth of medical cannabis and sparked a national legalization movement. Before our series begins next week, we hope you’ll enjoy an episode from the Stereotypes: Straight Talk from Queer Voices podcast, hosted by award-winning journalist Christopher Beale. You will hear the story of Jim Mitulski, a gay pastor who provided cannabis for compassionate use to dying AIDS patients through his church and broadened the definition of medical cannabis. Tune in to hear his inspiring story of courage and advocacy.
“I took a risk. I used my body. I acted on a belief that was motivated by my desire to provide healing and comfort for my friends. I didn't know what else to do that I could do, but this was something I could do.” - Jim Mitulski
If you enjoyed this episode, we’d recommend Episode 133, Weed Words: Marijuana- Unpacking It’s Complicated History.
Hosted by Ellen Lee Scanlon
