Lee Hannah, Ph.D., professor of political science at Wright State University, talked to WYSO Public Radio about his new book, “Green Rush: The Rise of Medical Marijuana in the United States.” “Green Rush” looks at the de-stigmatization of marijuana and the policies around it that still need to be ironed out.
“This book is written really about how medical marijuana came online,” Hannah told WYSO. “It starts in 1996, in California. Now it’s in 38 states here in 2024. It came to Ohio in 2016. What we do in this book is we use this model called the policy process model, but we essentially write about how over time it became de-stigmatized in a lot of ways, as certain populations of patients came forward and got into activism for this policy.”
