The current marijuana legislation sitting on Gov. Northam’s desk will delay justice for Black and Brown Virginians who have suffered decades of harm caused by the ruthless, racist War on Drugs. Simple possession of marijuana would continue to be illegal.
As the balance of power continues to shift in Virginia, it’s important for us to stick together and work as a team to protect our civil rights and civil liberties.
The Right to Vote coalition and the Richmond Public Library welcome you to Block The Vote: The Deliberate Suppression of the Black Vote. This exhibit traces the history of voter suppression and felony disenfranchisement in Virginia and throughout our nation.
Virginia is on the verge of legalizing marijuana. It’s important that lawmakers center racial justice and social equity as they debate the ins and outs of legislation to legalize marijuana in Virginia.
