Stash Founder / Blogger Chris Goldstein in Al Roker Reports: Marijuana Inc.

By "Radical" Russ Belville on March 16, 2009


New Jersey marijuana reform activist and media personality Chris Goldstein made a brief appearance in MSNBC’s Marijuana Inc hosted by Al Roker. The program premiered 3/15/09 and is expected to be re-aired frequently.

Goldstein is currently presenting local marijuana information seminars in support of The New Jersey Compassionate Use of Marijuana Act. This legislation passed the NJ State Senate February 23rd in a 22-16 vote and now continues to the Assembly.

The next seminars are Monday March 16th at the A-Space in Philadelphia hosted by PhillyNORML and Saturday March 21st at the Collingswood Public Library hosted by CMMNJ.

Chris is available to local media in the Delaware Valley to discuss issues related to marijuana policy and reform.

Goldstein’s short appearance in the MSNBC program stemmed from 2007 journalism work in Los Angeles. The writer and audio broadcaster was covering a federal DEA raid on a state authorized medical marijuana dispensary; The Arts District Healing Center in West Hollywood.

Chris Goldstein’s podcast for NORML about that 2007 raid can be found online:

I am the host of the NORML SHOW LIVE and The NORML Stash Blog. I'm married, live in Portland, Oregon, and I am a registered medical marijuana caregiver in this state. I've worked days as an IT geek and nights as a professional musician. Previously, I have been the host of my own political talk radio show on satellite radio. I've been the High Times "Freedom Fighter of the Month" for my work producing Oregon NORML's TV show, "A Cannabis Community Forum", and for helping to institute Portland's wildly successful medical marijuana cardholders meetings, where we help sick and disabled Oregonians acquire cannabis plant starts, learn gardening, and understand the medical marijuana law. I've dedicated my life to bringing an end to adult marijuana prohibition and re-legalizing cannabis hemp, and I'm honored to be chosen by NORML to be our daily voice.
