Cannabis Equity: The Next Frontier In Wokeness!

A document from the Governor’s Office of Business and Economic Development calls for California to provide $2 million to help localities establish a “cannabis equity” program. An additional $13 million will be used to help “equity applicants” set up and operate cannabis businesses.

“Equity applicants” include (& appear limited to) people convicted of using and/or selling cannabis. “Collateral consequences associated with cannabis law violations” & “generational poverty” are cited as driving the program, but which presumed barrier to entering the business is the main one?

Giving preferential treatment to drug criminals, including dealers, is a kind of reparation. Naturally, race and ethnicity figure in the analysis. Is the state really trying to offset effects of criminal convictions or is it just another, albeit bizarre, racial preference dressed up as justice for war on drug “victims”? FULL STORY
