    Given the recent legal recognition of sacramental marijuana use, such meetings are vital to ensure the effective implementation of these new rights and to address any lingering challenges or concerns faced by the Rastafarian community.

    Why should they be treated any different from the rest of us

    Let’s hope this isn’t just a photo-op. The Rastafarian community has been marginalized for too long, we need real policy changes, not just talks.

    It’s a good start, but I’ll wait to see what actions follow these discussions. Representation must come with tangible outcomes.
