Cannabis rights activism
Cannabis rights activism advocates for the legalization and decriminalization of cannabis use and possession. Activists aim to change laws to allow responsible adult use, promote medical access for patients, and address issues like social justice, particularly concerning the disproportionate impact of cannabis prohibition on marginalized communities. They argue for the economic benefits of a regulated cannabis market, including job creation and tax revenue. The movement also seeks to educate the public on the benefits and risks of cannabis, emphasizing harm reduction and personal freedom, while challenging outdated stigmas associated with its use.
