The documentary explains how hemp was such a large industry and “the first marijuana law to exist in the United States was a law ordering farmers to grow hemp”, and then changes to how marijuana became a feared drug. The documentary explains how reefer madness in the 1900s depicted blacks as criminals who smoked weed and disrespected whites in articles and newspapers, which led to the 1937 Marijuana Tax Act which made it illegal to grow cannabis without federal stamps, which were never sold which in turn made all forms of cannabis illegal.
