What do marijuana and illegal immigrants have in common? Sonia Erika joins me to tell her story from naive undocumented student to eventual Harvard graduate and pro-weed activist. We dive deep into how her background influenced her work with communities, the facts about marijuana use, and how building strong businesses can positively affect the communities hurt by current drug laws.
The legalization of marijuana isn’t as black and white as it may appear, and current systems may be making us worse off, both economically and in health. Do the laws in your state encourage business building and growth? Is there an argument to be made for keeping marijuana illegal?
