(Last night on PBS, I watched Standing Silent Nation, and I learned alot on hemp farming on the Pine Ridge Indian Reservation and how the DEA and our government have taken agressive measures to stop them from harvesting their industrial hemp. Tribal sovereignty refers to the inherent authority of indigenous tribes to govern themselves and in this case the Oglala Sioux Tribe are not being treated as a sovereign nation.)

Industrial hemp is non-psychoactive low-THC varieties of the cannabis sativa plant. Currently, it is illegal for U.S. farmers to grow industrial hemp because it is improperly classified as a "drug" under the Controlled Substances Act.
