The billion-dollar marijuana market should have room for every ethnic

group. But going from decriminalization to medical and recreational use

has resulted in a patchwork of dangerous inconsistencies. The

weaponization of marijuana laws against communities of color leaves

victims incarcerated or economically incapable of high non-refundable

application fees in licensing lotteries for dispensaries, growing,

transporting, and/or processing legalized marijuana. Cannabis users are

vulnerable to pesticide use by industrial growers. What is the best

science? Have we lost expertise to incarceration? These barriers are

not from the era of slavery or Jim Crow; but today.
