Honeysuckle Magazine: The Freedom Issue

Since its inception, Honeysuckle has been motivated by three aims: Freedom, beauty and truth. With this issue, we continue our discovery into some of America’s darkest depths. Reggae icon Damian Marley graces our cover and speaks about his longstanding commitment to social change, through his music and advocacy work with the restorative justice nonprofit Last Prisoner Project. Rapper Berner, one of the world’s most influential canna-preneurs, discusses human connection and the dark side of the industry. Photographed by visionary artist Nabil Elderkin, their stories testify to the power of the movement.   We also go deep inside the prison-industrial complex, exploring the efforts of those who suffered in it and those working to release them. Cannabis brand Evidence, founded by siblings Dan, Casey, and Kelly Dalton, describes their mission as “we grow weed at a prison to help people get out of prison for selling weed.” Jessica Jackson, co-founder of Dream Corps JUSTICE and Chief Advocacy
