Latest / Great Moments in Weed History
Dennis Peron Put the Grass in Grassroots
After discovering the healing power of weed while serving in Vietnam, Dennis Peron smuggled two pounds of high-grade herb home. From there he became a charismatic and defiant leader of San Francisco's medical weed and gay rights movements. A fiery street-fighting optimist, he suffered multiple stints in prison—and even took a bullet in a police raid—all without ever giving up or backing down.
The movement he helped lead and inspire liberated the world. If you don't know his story, then you don't know weed history.
