Y’all. Smoking weed in NY bought from a legal retail dispensary owned and operated by a justice-involved Black man AND his family just hit different.🤷🏾♀️ Congrats to Smacked Village’s historic opening! #legacytolegal#theweedhead#cannabisequity#thisisthework
Today at 4pm via Zoom: Learn about the Cannabis Health Equity Movement with @DasheedaDawson at our upcoming virtual Speaker Series event on Jan. 23 at 4pm ET. RSVP Now: https://t.co/NcdHzGMCcw
Y’all. The Dormitory Authority of the State of NY (DASNY), the Office of #cannabis Management (OCM) and the Cannabis Control Board (CCB) are 3 different entities with different responsibilities. If your “expert consultant” doesn’t know this, they ain’t the one. 🤷🏾♀️#theweedhead
Y’all. “Black market” as a term is racist language. Saying it is “more understandable” perpetuates systemic racial biases and is false. How is it more understandable than “unregulated”, “unlicensed” or “previously existing”? The language of #cannabis reform & equity matters. 🤷🏾♀️
Ive always been critical of govt accountability even as an official. But ya’ll can keep whatever this microwave industry and equity y’all want poppin’ in NY so quickly. Nearly 100 years to make it terrible, 18 mos to fix it all?😑 Nah. Make it make sense. #theweedhead
@thegalaxyloung1 @mmj_ny How? We can’t blame OCM (formed with the first appointment Oct 2021) for the mistakes of a limited license and product program started in 2014 and made worse by a previous administration. We can’t re-write history.
@mmj_ny And while I agree with you abt prices, there has been and still is more privilege in being a registered MMJ patient than not. Yet, <200k registrants among almost 20 million ppl in the state. We have an education & access gap issue desperately needing solutions.
@mmj_ny There are many health equity issues caused by 100 yrs of prohibition—economic, environmental, human and social injuries. We arent going to solve them all at once or even in 10 yrs. No one shd have to be a registered patient for access to an inherently medicinal plant.
