Tribute 2 Peter McWilliams

Host, Casper Leitch, pays tribute to Peter McWilliams with guests Paul Krassner, Peter Christ, Paul Stanford, Todd McCormick, Chris Conrad and Mikkie Norris.

Todd McCormick, Paul Krassner, Paul Stanford, Chris Conrad, Mikki Norris, and Peter Christ homage to the late author and activist Peter McWilliams, who was a pioneer in the medical marijuana movement and a visionary in predicting the reality of cyber war.

Peter McWilliams was known for his advocacy for personal liberties and the right to make choices that don't harm others. His work influenced many and he is the person who coined the term 'consensual crime'.

McWilliams faced five years in prison for his need of medical marijuana due to his AIDS diagnosis, which ultimately led to his premature death. The speakers express outrage over his unjust treatment and call for an end to policies surrounding the war on drugs and the denial of medical marijuana defense at the federal level. They honor McWilliams' legacy as an inspiring figure who advocated for improving people's lives.

I got involved in the Hemp Movement in 1990 when I was hired by Jack Herer to run hiss office. I launched the cable television series ‘TIME 4 HEMP’ on January 5, 1991. Time 4 Hemp is the first TV series in the history of broadcasting to focus strictly on the topic of cannabis. This has given me the dubious honor of being ‘The Father Of Marijuana Television’.
