		Bill Gunn, who died in 1989 at the age of 55, clearly wanted 'Ganja and Hess' to be a kind of breakthrough film, both for himself as a director, and in terms of content.

	CSP - 'Ganja in Jamaica: The Effects of Marijuana Use' by Vera Rubin and Lambros Comitas
		The belief that ganja acts as a work stimulant and the behavior that this induces casts considerable doubt on the universality of what has been described in the literature as "the amotivational syndrome," or a "loss of desire to work, to compete, to face challenges.
		Ganja, in the cultural setting of rural Jamaica, rather than hindering, permits its users to face, start and carry through the most difficult and distasteful manual labor.
		Ganja serves multiple purposes that are essentially pragmatic, rather then psychedelic: working-class users smoke ganja to support rational task-oriented behavior, to keep "conscious," fortify health, maintain peer group relations and enhance religious and philosophical contemplation.

	Background to the Ganja Issue in Jamaica
		Hindi in origin, ganja, in tandem with other Hindi terms and specific East Indian patterns of use and consumption, provide indisputable evidence that the social use of marijuana in contemporary Jamaica was introduced to the island by indentured laborers from India brought to replace recently emancipated slaves during the last half of the 19th century.

	Ganja & Hess
		As it is, Ganja & Hess owes less to the myths surrounding Dracula (or Blacula) than the themes of moral decay found in Oscar Wilde and Joseph Conrad.
		Less melodrama than meditation, Ganja & Hess is among those rare, atypical experiments that test the fundamentals of narrative structure to encompass a wide range of mixed emotions and random ideas.
		The details that flow randomly throughout, from Jones’s marvelously stoic approach to his character’s hedonistic impulses, to Hinton’s carefully lit photography (it was filmed in super 16mm and blown up to 35), Sam Waymon’s music, and Gunn’s eye for set and location detail, become more rewarding upon repeat viewings.

	End criminalisation of ganja for adults - JAMAICAOBSERVER.COM
		The use of ganja has long been entrenched in Jamaican culture, and a policy of decriminalisation would be a first and well-advised step in reflecting this cultural reality.
		Decriminalisation would acknowledge that the responsible use of ganja poses little health or safety threat, and that its use as a medicine, intoxicant, and a sacrament is an established part of the Jamaican culture.
		Paul Chang is head of the Coalition for Ganja Law Reform and NORML Jamaica, and a director of the National Alliance for the Legalisation of Ganja.

		Where ganja is concerned, the Drug Court will hear cases involving smoking or otherwise using the substance, possession of utensils in connection with smoking, and possession of up to eight ounces of the matter.
		Ganja could be decriminalised for personal use and justified under the constitutionally protected right of enjoyment of the privacy of one's home, and possession in limited quantities for such private use likewise decriminalised.
		Once it becomes law, the decriminalisation of ganja for personal use, based on the right of privacy of the home, and its decriminalisation for religious use, based on the right of observance of religious doctrines, could then be covered by the Constitutional limitation respected by the United Nations Conventions.

		For it to succeed, ganja should be separated from hard drugs, its criminal status reversed, and the education around it framed and carriedby people with personal experience of the substance.
		It would be, she suggested, a backward step to decriminalise ganja, in light of the damage already being done by tobacco, and in light also of the fact that "the jury is still out", where the scientific evidence on ganja was concerned.
		In answer to the Commission's question whether preventing the use of small amounts of ganja in specified circumstances was acceptable as a matter of justice when the use of alcohol was not, she maintained that the abuse of other legal substances was enough of a problem already.
