Philadelphia, Pennsylvania Sep 14, 2024 (Issuewire.com) - The Diasporic Alliance for Cannabis Opportunities (DACO) will host Black Cannabis Week 2024 from September 22-29 with an "unconference" model, a fresh and innovative approach to engage stakeholders and community members. This year's theme, "Deeply Rooted, Growing Together," underscores a commitment to fostering a vibrant and inclusive cannabis community. 

Black Cannabis Week kicks off with the Daily Dose Tour, with stops in Virginia, Maryland, New York, New Jersey, and Philadelphia providing the opportunity for attendees to delve into key issues and developments within the cannabis industry.

We invite everyone to join us in this groundbreaking series of events. Black Cannabis Week is a cornerstone of DACO's annual programming, dedicated to educating, celebrating, and elevating Black individuals in the cannabis industry while addressing critical issues and advocating for equity and inclusion, shares Cherron Perry-Thomas, co-founder of Diasporic Alliance of Cannabis Opportunities (DACO), the Cannabis Opportunities Conference.  

Black Cannabis Week 2024 features marquee events including:

 

  • Cannabis Opportunities Conference: In partnership with PA Senator Sharif Street, this free conference offers participatory learning experiences through debates, roundtables, breakout sessions, business expo, expungement clinic, job fair, and MMJ card registration.
  • Bouqé Presents BLAZE THE RUNWAY: A blending fashion, music, and cannabis culture. 
  • Policy Breakfast: Policymakers engage in a critical discussion on local, state, and federal cannabis policies. 
  • Social Justice Film Festival: A film festival highlighting social justice stories featuring free viewings and panel discussions.

Our mission with Black Cannabis Week is to provide a global platform that uplifts and empowers Blacks within the cannabis industry. Through a rich tapestry of discussions, workshops, and networking opportunities, we ensure that voices from across the diaspora are recognized and celebrated together. This is a unique opportunity for attendees to learn from industry leaders, connect with like-minded individuals, and gain valuable insights into the future of cannabis, adds Perry-Thomas who actively works with legislators at the city, state and federal level for social equity and justice policy including patient rights.
