A new exhibit at the Oakland Museum of California offers viewers a look at the complex history- and present- of pot use throughout the world.

California pot advocates are hoping an initiative to legalize recreational marijuana will make it on to the state ballot come November

And if you're looking for background on weed,  the Oakland Museum of California will soon be able to help.

They'll be opening a new exhibit entitled Altered State: Marijuana in California. 

Sarah Seiter  is the Associate Curator of Natural Sciences with the Oakland Museum of California.
