Episode 130: Karma Koala Podcast 337: Brett Pollack & Marleen Theunissen – Mpondoland Plug Project. Connecting Rural Communities Into South Africa’s Nascent Cannabis Market Under Law
It’s time to catch up with Brett & Marleen to see how the Mpondoland Plug Project is going a year + since we last spoke on the podcast.They are connecting rural communities to the new South African cannabis club scene under the law as it now stands in South Africa.There aren’t many projects like this in Africa or around the world for that matter so the model they are working on should be of interest to anyone looking to do things a little differently.Yes not controlling the means of production but rather guiding and being guided is harder but it already sounds as though it is more rewarding.If I’m in the US or Canada and Mpondoland sun grown cannabis was on offer at my local dispensary rather than fake Durban Poioson or blueberry this, bannana caramel that, I know what i’d be spending my hard earned cash on.https://cannabislaw.report/karma-koala-podcast-337-brett-pollack-marleen-theunissen-mpondoland-plug-project-connecting-rural-communities-into-south-africas-nascent-cannabis-market-under-law/

Episode 129: Karma Koala Podcast 336: Chris Duvall Author of “The African Roots of Marijuana”
I speak to Chris about his book "The African Roots of Marijuana" and what he learnt from the research.The effects of colonialization and conservative Islam on attitudes towards cannabis from the 19th century through to mid 20th century and the subsequent internationalization of cannabis prohibition.As always with the cannabis plant there's layers of culture, complexity and diversity that we will be unravelling for many years to come.The big question. How do African nations create the structures for themselves and their people's future?
