Redressing the War on Drugs' Impact Through Business

Description:

The War on Drugs had a devastating impact on BIPOC communities. Through discriminatory law enforcement practices, biased sentencing and the perpetuation of negative stereotypes, this policy perpetuated deep-seated inequalities and resulted in mass incarceration. With cannabis legal in much of America, we’ll look at what businesses and advocates are doing to reverse the damage through partnerships and opportunities designed to lift up communities. We’ll also explore progress being made in freeing and exonerating the victims - and what reform work is still needed to right the wrongs of the past.
