No kidding. I saw a FR headline today which says "Marijuana is racist". I immediately thought, "has to be the Bee".
But lo and behold, they passed some state law in Washington state which says the word "marijuana" is racist, and now you have to use the word "cannabis". No kidding.
Marijuana is racist? I don’t get it.
Is calling it “weed,” “joint” or “reefer” racist? Three syllables are just too much for me.
