Not colonial, but to be honest she is correct that the initial marijuana policies were indeed based in racism. The government was fearful of Mexican overflow, so they banned weed and then made up tons of lies about it.
Ron Paul made the same case years ago.

If everything is racist, nothing is racist.

She’s not wrong.
Marijuana prohibition is steeped on racial fear mongering.

Um what? Like 90% of the world has it labeled as illegal. 90% of the world isn't white.
Stop making shite up

I was at Woodstock. LOTS of weed smoked by everybody of all colors back then. I grew up in the "smoking weed leads to H & coke" era. There was nothing racial in the anti weed message that I caught. Just ignorance about the drug itself.

I'm a motherfricking white boy, an Army Veteran, and I could smoke just about anyone out of a room in a dope-smoking competition.
If I get caught with a large amount of it, I'm going to jail. If I get drug tested at work and pop hot, I'll probably lose my job (which thankfully doesn't drug test because I'm a daily toker). I know the risks and do it anyway. Not a black/white thing.
