Tackling Disparities and Advocating for Change
In a enlightening conversation with 3isFor co-founder JoJo Simmons during Black Cannabis Week, Sarah highlighted the troubling disparities in arrests between Black and white individuals for cannabis law violations, emphasizing the importance of having safe and discreet ways to transport cannabis to mitigate distressing experiences during traffic stops and prevent long-lasting consequences.
