Is there a First Amendment defense to importing 20 tons of marijuana for religious use? Join a fascinating discussion with Carl Olsen as he takes viewers on a nearly 50-year, pioneering journey of defending his constitutional right to consume sacramental cannabis as a member of the Ethiopian Zion Coptic Church. I consider him the foremost expert on this topic in the country. His legal challenges underscore the complexities in balancing religious rights with state and federal drug regulations. Carl paved the way for medical cannabidiol in Iowa by founding Iowans for Medical Marijuana (https://iowamedicalmarijuana.org/). And now that there is an approved secular use for marijuana in Iowa, can the State still deny his right to consume THC for religious purposes? We'll see what role the Iowa Religious Freedom Restoration Act will play moving forward. So much to cover that we split it into two episodes!
