Join us on January 21st for a critical examination of cannabis legalization’s trajectory – from grassroots movement to corporatized industry. This Community Forum, titled Cannabis & Capitalism: Is Justice Possible in Legalization?, explores urgent questions:
- How has free-market ideology subverted legalization efforts?
- What’s the difference between legalization and regulation, and can we undo decades of propaganda-driven overtaxation and overregulation?
- As consolidation reshapes the industry, what lessons does cannabis hold for emerging psychedelic markets facing a re-branded global drug war?
Featuring Dr. Paulo J. R. Pereira, Dr. Amanda Reiman, Dr. Robert Chlala, and Chelsea Chism-Vargas, we’ll examine how to center justice, equity, and solidarity in drug policy reform.
