Responsibly Different™
Fab 5 Freddy & The Impact of the War on Drugs
Show Notes

In this episode we dive deep into some of the systemic issues of racism and oppression that have occurred through the War on Drugs. You'll hear my conversation with the formerly incarcerated Bernard Noble, hip hop pioneer Fab 5 Freddy. Their partnership with Curaleaf created a social enterprise called B Noble that uses the sale of legal cannabis to begin righting the wrongs done during cannabis prohibition. Following my conversation with Bernard and Fab, I sat down with the Executive Director of the Last Prisoner Project, Sarah Gersten to help bring context to War on Drugs and its impact, and the importance of the work Bernard and Fab are doing within the legalized cannabis industry.
