Marijuana Legalization

Hash Bash will kick off Saturday at noon. WEMU's Taylor Bowie has more on the celebration's sustained focus on expungement efforts for criminal offenses related to cannabis possession.

The Ann Arbor Jazz and Blues Festival, the Hash Bash, the White Panther Party and the music of the legendary MC5. What do these things have in common? Activist and rebel John Sinclair. The noted poet and music historian passed away Tuesday in Detroit at the age of 82. Two of Sinclair's friends stopped by the WEMU studio to share their memories and experiences. Current Hash Bash organizer and former event organizer Adam Brook joined WEMU's David Fair to honor their friend and colleague.

Even though marijuana has been legalized in Michigan, organizers of Ann Arbor’s annual Hash Bash tomorrow say it will still remain a protest forum. WEMU’s Cathy Shafran explains.
