choice. The four favourites of John Sinclair, all handpicked and
exclusively selected, are John Sinclair Sativa, John Sinclair Indica,
John Sinclair Skunk and John Sinclair Indica x Sativa .
Cannabis Hero
John
Sinclair has made a legendary contribution to cannabis legalization. He
became a heroic icon of counterculture and of cannabis activism when he
in 1969 was arrested for giving two joints to an undercover narcotics
officer. He was sentenced to 10 years for possession of marijuana. This
event caused widespread reactions. Abbie Hoffmann jumped the stage
during The Who’s concert during the legendary Woodstock Festival in
protest of Sinclair’s arrestment, and several protest were issued in the
aftermath of the arrest.

It
was not until two years after, however, that any of these protests
would see any effect. John’s arrest and imprisonment sparked the
landmark “Free John Now Rally” in Ann Arbour in Michigan in December
1971. This was a huge event with a significant presence of influential
left-wing personalities, including John Lennon and Yoko Ono, Stevie
Wonder, David Peel, Pete Seeger, Alan Ginsberg, Abbie Hoffmann, Jerry
Rubin, and numerous others. John Lennon even recorded the song “Free
John Sinclair” on his album Some Time in New York City (1972).
Thanks to the enormous contribution to the concert and the massive
protest against Sinclair’s imprisonment, the “Free John Now Rally” was
successful. After the gathering, Michigan Supreme Court rules that the
state’s marijuana laws were unconstitutional. John was released only
three days after the rally, after having spent two of his ten year jail
sentence.
The
arrest and subsequent liberation of John Sinclair became such an iconic
case for the counterculture movement and for the legalization of
cannabis.
Amsterdam Cannabis Connoisseur
As
a pro-cannabis activist, John Sinclair has long been fond of the
liberal soft drugs laws of the Netherlands and has spent a good portion
of the past decades studying the consequences of its decriminalization.
He got affiliated with Ceres Seeds during his quest for freedom and
cannabis excellence in the Netherlands, and has worked closely with the
Ceres Seeds team to select four strains which mirror the taste of a
cannabis connoisseur and legend. The result is the finest sativa,
indica, skunk and indica x sativa you will find. Ceres Seeds are proud
to donate a part of the benefits of John Sinclair Seeds to the John
Sinclair Foundation.
