Celebrating Black History Month
Throughout the month of February, we celebrate Black History month. Every single day, we work to raise awareness of the inequities in the cannabis industry.
We’re celebrating Black History at the Light House Bistro for Tea Pad on February 9, 2023 from 6:00 PM – 9:00 PM in Annapolis with our featured guest, human and civil rights advocate Chairwoman Delegate Jheanelle Wilkins.
– In our home state of Maryland, Black Marylanders are arrested twice as much as white Marylanders. When and how will this stop?
– BIPOC and women historically do not have access to funds to apply for cannabis licenses or start up a business supporting the cannabis industry. How will the Maryland government prioritize access to funds POC and all minorities?
The above are two examples of the need to create diversity, equity and inclusion (DEl) in the cannabis industry.
Join Tea Pad, Chairwoman Wilkins, like-minded cannabis industry professionals, entrepreneurs, and students to network, educate yourself, and help advocate for cannabis policy and law that demands equal opportunity in the cannabis industry.
