In the ongoing conversation about legalizing marijuana in many of the United States, one voice from which you may not hear as much comes from people with a first-hand perspective: people who have gone to prison for drug-related crimes. KUMD has a conversation with Lucas Alan Dietsche from Lake Superior Ex-Incarcerated People Organizing [EXPO] about looking at these issues through the lens of formerly-incarcerated people, and incorporating a more holistic approach to drug-related issues than simply turning to incarceration.
EXPO will be hosting a community discussion at 6:30 tonight at Essentia Health/St. Mary's Hospital in Superior (3500 Tower Avenue).
