How marijuana reform can repair and restore marginalized communities
In short: As US states move toward cannabis legalization, activist Khadijah Tribble explores how equitable reform can address the lasting damage caused by the war on drugs and pave a path toward restorative justice.
The war on drugs in the United States has undermined the progress of the Civil Rights Movement. Today, it continues to impact millions of people in marginalized communities through arrests, convictions, and incarceration for marijuana possession. Khadijah Tribble argues that legalization alone is insufficient; instead, reform must center on the casualties of these insidious policies to truly reclaim and restore these communities.
