If it seems like a new state is legalizing cannabis nearly every week, don’t worry, you’re not high — states are indeed legalizing the drug at an unprecedented pace. The wave of green legislation doesn’t seem like it’s going to start ebbing anytime soon, either.⁠ ⁠ In just the past six months, every cannabis-related ballot measure put to voters last November passed — including those in conservative Mississippi, Montana, and South Dakota — and state legislatures in New York, New Mexico, and Virginia have approved bills to legalize cannabis for recreational use. That’s a lot of action. So much so, in fact, that there are now fewer states that have not legalized THC for either medicinal or recreational purposes (13), than there are that have given their residents a green light to smoke up at their leisure (17).⁠ ⁠ It’s now a question of when, not if, politicians in Washington, D.C., will get with the program and decide to do what the majority of Americans support by passing legislation to end federal prohibition once and for all. In the meantime, states are continuing to prime themselves to legalize the drug, either for medicinal use, recreational use, or both.⁠ ⁠ Tap the link in bio to see where things stand in all 50 states.

Walter Mondale, the prominent late-20th century Democrat who served as Jimmy Carter’s vice president and lost to Ronald Reagan in the 1984 election, died Monday, April 19th, at his home in Minneapolis, 'The New York Times' reports. He was 93.⁠ ⁠ A spokesman for Mondale’s family confirmed his death but did not reveal a cause. Mondale reportedly spent the weekend speaking with Carter, President Joe Biden, and First Lady Jill Biden, as well as Vice President Kamala Harris. He also sent a farewell email to former staffers. Memorials are currently being planned in both Minnesota and Washington, D.C.⁠ ⁠ A statement from Mondale’s family highlighted his public policy legacy, including ushering through the Fair Housing Act of 1968 and the passage of the Wild and Scenic Rivers Act. “Beyond his commitment to public service, our dad was committed to our family, and we will miss him more than words can capture,” the statement said.⁠ ⁠ Tap the link in bio to read more.⁠ ⁠ Photo: Diana Walker/The LIFE Images Collection/Getty Images

It’s impossible to address the state of Black brands in cannabis without addressing the cruel and unjust impact of the War on Drugs in the United States. The criminalization of cannabis has ripped apart families and communities, and ruined individual lives. People of color are four times more likely than white people to be arrested on possession charges. A 2021 analysis by the National Organization for Reform of Marijuana Laws (NORML), for example, reported that Black, Indigenous, and people of color (BIPOC) comprised 94 percent of cannabis-related arrests in 2020 in New York City.⁠ ⁠ As consumers and business owners increasingly reap the benefits and pleasures of looser cannabis restrictions, it’s important that the profits are equitably distributed. With that in mind, we caught up with Army veteran and cannabis activist Leo Bridgewater, national director of veteran outreach for Minorities for Medical Marijuana, for some recommendations on Black-owned cannabis brands to enjoy and support.⁠ ⁠ Tap the link in bio to read more.⁠ ⁠ This column is a collaboration with @honeysucklemagazine, a print and digital and media house emphasizing diverse voices and high visual impact.

When Michelle Zauner lost her mother in 2014, the only thing that got her through was food. The Korean American musician, who has won acclaim for the dreamy indie rock she records as Japanese Breakfast, found that learning to cook comforting dishes like 'jatjuk' (pine-nut porridge) and 'kimchi-jjigae' (a savory, spicy stew) allowed her to grieve for her mother, who’d cooked for her for years but had never taught her how. “There was no sense of urgency to learning that [before],” says Zauner, 32. “I never thought I was going to have so little time with my mom.”⁠ ⁠ Zauner’s new memoir, 'Crying in H Mart,' tells the story of their relationship through a lifetime of shared meals. She describes growing up as a mixed-race kid in Eugene, Oregon, and finding a new connection to her identity when she ate with her mom — whether they were at a restaurant ordering 'tteokguk' (rice cake soup) or slurping 'jajangmyeon' (black-bean noodles) with relatives in Seoul.⁠ ⁠ At the link in bio, the singer-songwriter discusses 'Crying in H Mart,' her moving new memoir.⁠ ⁠ Photo by @grifflotz for Rolling Stone

With Tina Turner on the ballot for this year’s Rock and Roll Hall of Fame class, the new episode of our 'Rolling Stone Music Now' podcast tells the story of her one-of-a-kind musical journey. Rob Sheffield and Brittany Spanos join host Brian Hiatt for the discussion, which also delves into HBO’s acclaimed recent documentary 'Tina' (which reveals the lasting trauma inflicted by her late ex-husband Ike Turner’s abuse) and her two autobiographies.⁠ ⁠ The episode explores the remarkable story of her ’80s comeback, while also making the case for Turner as a rock artist, a label she’s also long chosen for herself, and as an obviously Hall of Fame-worthy solo artist (she’s previously been inducted for her work with Ike).⁠ ⁠ Tap the link in bio to hear the entire discussion.⁠ ⁠ Photo: Paul Natkin/Getty Images

The great danger is not climate denial. The great danger is climate delay. Instead of pushing for changes tomorrow, world leaders and CEOs like to make virtuous-sounding statements about what they will do in 2050. And then in 2050, they will make virtuous-sounding statements about what they will do in 2070. Climate scientist Zeke Hausfather calls this the “empty radicalism” of long-term goals.⁠ ⁠ What’s needed is action now. As climate envoy John Kerry put it at the World Sustainable Development Summit in February: “We have to now phase out coal five times faster than we have been. We have to increase tree cover five times faster than we have been. We have to ramp up renewable energy six times faster than we are. We have to transition to [electric vehicles] 22 times faster.”⁠ ⁠ With Joe Biden in office, a serious plan to combat climate change is finally in our sights — but the clock is ticking, and there is no more room for error.⁠ ⁠ Tap the link in bio to read more.⁠ ⁠ Photo illustration by Matthew Cooley for Rolling Stone.

Kim Potter, the former Brooklyn Center, Minnesota, police officer who shot and killed Daunte Wright will be charged with second-degree manslaughter, 'The New York Times' reports.⁠ ⁠ Potter fatally shot the 20-year-old Wright on Sunday, April 11th. Wright had been pulled over for expired registration tags and because officers saw an “item hanging from the rearview mirror” (which is against the law in Minnesota). When the officers discovered there was a misdemeanor warrant out for Wright’s arrest, they tried to detain him. Body camera footage showed officers trying to handcuff Wright, and Wright trying to get back into his car; after a scuffle, Potter can be heard repeatedly shouting, “Taser” while pointing her gun at Wright and then shooting.⁠ ⁠ During a press conference Monday, April 12th, then-Brooklyn Center Police Chief Tim Gannon said he believed Potter — a 26-year veteran on the police force who also trained other officers in use of force, Taser use, and crowd control — meant to reach for her Taser but grabbed her gun when she shot Wright.⁠ ⁠ Charges against Potter are expected to be filed Wednesday, April 14th, Washington County prosecutor Pete Orput told 'The Times.' Orput did not immediately return 'Rolling Stone’s request for comment, nor did an attorney for Potter, Earl Gray.⁠ ⁠ Tap the link in bio to read more.

Disgraced financier Bernie Madoff, who carried out the largest Ponzi scheme in history, died Wednesday, April 14th, at the Federal Medical Center in Butner, North Carolina. He was 82.⁠ ⁠ The Federal Correctional Institution Butner Medium, where Madoff was incarcerated, confirmed his death. According to 'The Associated Press,' a source said Madoff died of natural causes. As 'The New York Times' notes, Madoff was reportedly suffering from kidney disease and had requested an early release from prison last year after being admitted to palliative care.⁠ ⁠ Originally known as a self-made financial wiz, Madoff was one of Wall Street’s biggest players for decades. He helped launched Nasdaq, the first electronic stock exchange, and served as its chairman. As the head of his investment firm, Bernard L. Madoff Investment Securities, he cultivated a client list that included a variety of banks and charities around the world, pension funds, individuals, retirees, and even celebrities like Kevin Bacon and Steven Spielberg.⁠ ⁠ Madoff was arrested on December 11th, 2008, and charged with securities fraud. His firm’s statements at that time stated there was about $65 billion in its accounts, although most of that wasn’t real. As a result, retirement funds and savings accounts were decimated, and Madoff became one of the great villains of the Great Recession (he reportedly even started wearing a bulletproof vest to court).⁠ ⁠ Madoff pleaded guilty to securities fraud and other charges in March 2009, and he was ultimately sentenced to 150 years in prison.⁠ ⁠ Tap the link in bio to read more.
