(Panel Discussion) Before legalization, there were decades of resistance, risk, and resilience. This deeply personal panel brings together voices from the front lines of the cannabis movement to share untold stories — from courtroom battles and storefront raids to civil disobedience and grassroots activism.
Together, they’ll explore what it meant to fight for access in a criminalized world, and how the transition to a regulated industry has impacted the culture, community, and values that built it. Through powerful storytelling and sharp reflection, this conversation honors the past while asking hard questions about justice, inclusion, and who truly gets to participate in the future of cannabis.
Whether you’re part of the new wave or the old guard, these are the voices that shaped the foundation of today’s industry — and they have something to say.
