An article on hemp history and it’s uses has just been published last Monday on History News Network.
Bradley Borougerdi, a lecturer and history doctoral student said the article “Why is hemp illegal?” is a summary of a presentation he delivered at the 128th annual American Historical Association meeting in early January.
The article discusses the history of hemp and its uses. “A lot of my research deals with how people thought about the plant, how they responded to the rumors, information, and hearsay about other people using it for different reasons than what they thought it should be used for,” Borougerdi said.
