Why people recommend it

Jack Herer's the Emperor Wears No Clothes by Jack Herer is a famous historical and political exploration of hemp and cannabis prohibition. On The Joe Rogan Experience in 2019, the host and B-Real discussed the book, with B-Real praising it as a great work that holds strong to the present day because everything Herer predicted regarding anti-cannabis propaganda is currently unfolding. Joe Rogan repeatedly brought up the author and the book across multiple episodes, including discussions with guests like Kim Congdon, Sara Weinshenk, Maynard James Keenan, Sean O'Malley, Tim Welch, and Amber Lyon. Rogan noted that Herer was a Goldwater Republican and a prominent marijuana activist and researcher who changed his worldview after discovering cannabis. Across these conversations, the speakers highlighted how the book meticulously exposes the real roots of the propaganda that successfully turned marijuana into an illegal substance. They emphasized Herer's remarkable transformation from a straight-laced political conservative into an iconic advocate and hero for the cannabis movement, whose detailed historical writings continue to serve as a vital resource for understanding the ongoing fight for legalization, corporate involvement, and the dismantling of long-standing governmental falsehoods regarding the plant.
