The Context of White Supremacy Radio Program revisits July 27th, 2013 Compensatory Call-In. This program aired two weeks after the conclusion to the Trayvon Martin murder trial. Dr. Welsing joined us on, July 21st to discuss the teen’s death and weeks of courtroom action. During her commentary, she promoted Neely Fuller Jr’s 10 Stops and added her own suggestions – which included abstaining from drug use. Dr. Welsing’s five minute anti-drug spiel inspired other podcast segments and a motivated a hosts of C.O.W.S. listeners to voice their support of cannabis consumption, and/or their view that Dr. Welsing is probably confused about the THC-loveliness of reefer. They say hindsight is 20/20. Nearly a decade after these events, 19 states and Washington D.C. have legalized recreational use of the green stuff. California and other regions are now considering legislation that requires all cannabis products to carry a warning label explaining the product’s potential mental health hazards. This is one of the primary dangers Dr. Welsing emphasized ten years earlier.
