In order to help engage the San Diego-area community in a dialogue about the medical marijuana laws and the county's ongoing challenge to them, the Marijuana Policy Project is hosting a free screening of the documentary Waiting to Inhale followed by a panel discussion.
Waiting to Inhale is an award-winning, feature-length documentary that explores the movement to legalize medical marijuana.
Filmmaker Jed Riffe will moderate the panel and the Q&A session which begins at 3:30 p.m. Panelists include local physician Robert Sterner, M.D.; local medical marijuana patient/advocate Rudy Reyes; and F. Aaron Smith, the California policy director for MPP.
This event is taking place at a crucial time for San Diego's medical marijuana community. In the coming months, the United States Supreme Court will be deciding whether or not to hear a legal challenge initiated by San Diego and San Bernardino counties seeking to nullify parts of California's medical marijuana law.
We hope that you and your friends and family will be able to take advantage of this unprecedented opportunity to engage in a local discussion about medical marijuana.
Event organizers need of a few trustworthy volunteers to help make sure this event runs smoothly. If you are interested in helping out, please contact F. Aaron Smith at [email protected].
