Ep. 1 - Social Equity in the cannabis industry & progressive organizing, w/ Jason Ortiz from MCBA.
On the first official episode of KalikoVision, we are joined by Jason Ortiz, President of Minority Cannabis Business Association (MCBA).
We learn about his story of getting arrested in high school for simple marijuana possession and how he channeled that experience into a life of activism after getting involved with Students for Sensible Drug Policy (SSDP) in college. He also talks about the lessons he has learned from his experience organizing for progressive issues and candidates from Occupy Wall Street to the Trump era.
