Women and Cannabis: The Untapped Market
RACE TALKS March Forum
In 2018, RACE TALKS hosted, “Overturning Marijuana Convictions: Equitizing Marijuana Convictions for the Poor and People of Color.” This month, we discuss the new “Green Rush,” and explore the disproportional access that BIPOC have to the cannabis industry, especially Black people who remain incarcerated. The legalization of cannabis in 30+ states, and the impending federal legalization have given way to innovative and lucrative business opportunities derived wholly from cannabis. At the forefront of this new wealth creation are CIS white men, so we shift the focus for Women’s History Month to four Black women who are boldly pioneering their own path to level the cannabis playing field.
Video of the live event will be available to view for 30 days after the event.
