This book is dedicated to my mother, Lois Rowan; and to victims of the war on cannabis.
My name is on the cover of this book, but the ideas and experiences that inspired it were the work of a small army of steadfast family members, fellow cannabis activists, dedicated doctors and scientists, groundbreaking scholars, brilliant attorneys, amazing publicists, inspiring artists, tireless coworkers, phenomenal assistants, and close to 220,000 registered Harborside patients.
I honor and thank each and every one of them, especially:
My beautiful partner and fiance, Yolanda Felix, who calms me in the center of the storm and reminds me what is really important; her two daughters, Nayir and Lani, who support me every day as both family and coworkers; and their daughtersmy granddaughters by loveMona, Renee, Amelia, and Juliana. They all make my heart sing. My father, Tony DeAngelo, my most trusted advisor, who endowed me with talent and taught me by example that tough and decent are not mutually exclusive.
My brother, Andrew, who was the very first to believe in the vision and has always been by my side; and his life partner, Samantha Campos, who weaves words like tapestries.
My partner at Harborside, dave wedding dress; and his partner, kala, who call the four directions and bring magic to our lives.
Each and every person who has ever worked at Harborside, for helping wrestle the vision to the ground and setting the gold standard of cannabis retailing.
Henry Wykowski, my brother in arms, valiant defender and loyal friend; without him, Harborside might not still be open.
James Anthony, brilliant strategist and steadfast advocate, without whom Harborside might never have been licensed.
Gaynell Rogers, my extraordinary publicist and personal manager, who made sure our story was told the way it really happened.
My executive assistant, Dani Geenshe is the glue that holds my world together, with amazing skill and infinite patience.
My partner at the ArcView Group, Troy Dayton, who talks me down when I get overwrought and calls me out when Im fooling myself. And his partner, Carla Bagdonas, who has made him even steadier than he already was.
Dave Lampach, Addison DeMoura, and everybody at Steep Hill Laboratory, for protecting patients and unlocking the secrets of our favorite plant.
All the courageous elected officials who have fought for cannabis reform and defended Harborside, especially Senators Rand Paul and Cory Booker, U.S. Representatives Earl Blumenauer, Sam Farr, Barbara Lee, Jared Polis, Dana Rohrabacher, Eric Swalwell, Loretta Sanchez, and Dina Titus; California State Lt. Governor Gavin Newsom; California State Controller Betty Yee; California State Senator Mark Leno; California State Assemblymembers Tom Ammiano, Susan Bonilla, Rob Bonta, Reggie Jones-Sawyer, Bill Quirk, and Nancy Skinner, and Tony Thurmond; San Francisco Supervisor David Campos; Oakland Mayor Emerita Jean Quan; Oakland Mayor Libby Schaaf; San Leandro Mayor Emeritus Stephen Cassidy; San Leandro Mayor Pauline Cutter; Oakland City Attorney Barbara Parker; Oakland City Councilmembers Lynette Gibson-McElhaney, Dan Kalb, Rebecca Kaplan, Patricia Kernighan, and Anne Campbell Washington; San Leandro City Councilmembers Deborah Cox, Jim Prola, Michael Gregory, Corina Lopez, Lee Thomas; and San Jose City Councilmembers Pierluigi Oliverio and Ash Kalra.
John Gooding and Michael Colbruno, for guiding Harborside through choppy waters to safe ports, and teaching me the art of nonconfrontational politics.
