The Social Equity Revolution in the cannabis industry indeed requires a unified effort across various sectors, including education, legislation, organizations, and advocates. It's essential for the social equity community to recognize that they must have a voice in shaping the laws and regulations that affect them directly. Pushing for expungement of non-violent cannabis offenses is critical to providing individuals with a fair chance at a second life without the burden of past convictions. Additionally, advocating for cannabis to be de-scheduled rather than re-scheduled is essential. Rescheduling could maintain barriers to entry and perpetuate the inequalities of the past, whereas de-scheduling would open up opportunities for everyone and remove the stigma associated with cannabis. Unifying efforts to petition, advocate, and push for these changes is key to achieving true social equity in the cannabis industry. It requires collaboration, persistence, and a clear understanding of the issues at hand to enact meaningful change that benefits all stakeholders.
