Article on the History of Marijuana Prohibition

Attached is a lovely PBS article on the history of marijuana prohibition, steeped in racism, classism and yellow journalism. Dr. David F. Musto, a U.S. drug policy historian is interviewed. The article is a bit dated (almost 15 years old), but obviously the history of the debate has not changed.
