It’s not new that cannabis is and has always been linked to societal growth. Arizona was known to have some of the harshest marijuana laws, with the 5th highest incarceration rate predominantly targeted towards the black indigenous people of color (BIPOC).

To help us figure out what’s going on in the desert as it relates to all things cannabis, is the executive director of the Arizona Dispensary Association, Samuel Richard. Samuel is a political lobbyist that is using his expertise to help Arizonians navigate the cannabis space. 

Dr. O and Samuel dived deep into all things activism, cannabis- psychedelics as medicine & many more.
