People and their Plants, a community driven study is a DCC funded community engaged research project involving Cal Poly Humboldt, UC Berkeley, Origins Council, United Core Alliance, Leafworks, and Canndor Herbarium. Dr. Dominic Corva is the Principal Investigator (PI) at Cal Poly Humboldt and his subscope in the project is to conduct 100 ethnographic interviews and tell two stories about California cannabis in a geographic context during the modern drug war 1971-2016. One will be one the global context while being respectful of the places cannabis came to California from. The second will be about places cannabis was stewarded and movements therein within California. Dominic will Interview people about their life histories in these places and stories about building blocks moving between places. These two stories will be published as peer reviewed and open access articles. This work places these stories on the record as reference material. It will tell the story of the human-plant relationship from the perspective of people who love the plant as opposed to from the cops which is what’s mostly currently on the record.
