Link in Bio. White-Buffalo-Events.com Now that the election is over, let’s get down to business. We’ll be discussing important matters including legalization, decriminalization, expungement, interstate commerce and more. A 2020 analysis by the American Civil Liberties Union, concluded, “Black people are 3.64 times more likely than white people to be arrested for marijuana possession, notwithstanding comparable usage rates.” Authors reported, “In every single state, Black people were more likely to be arrested for marijuana possession, and in some states, Black people were up to six, eight, or almost ten times more likely to be arrested. In 31 states, racial disparities were actually larger in 2018 than they were in 2010.” If you have a felony for possession or trafficking, will you be permitted to work in this industry or secure a license? Expungement is in process in California but not guaranteed in other states. What if you have a misdemeanor for possession. Will that be expunged when mj is federally legal? Racism exists in all industries, but we don’t have to tolerate it. Let’s lead the way in this industry and proactively create opportunities for communities of color. #poc #expungement #lawreform https://www.instagram.com/p/CHpJTdJBtSl/?igshid=q7mkicesvdps
