Cannabis would be a trillion-dollar industry that was ours,” says Dreka Gates in an exclusive interview, reflecting on the historical and social implications of cannabis prohibition and its disproportionate impact on Black and Brown communities in America and beyond.

It'll just grow and it'll just be there. How can this possibly be illegal?" she adds.at over $1.5 trillion and projected to grow annually by 5-10% in coming years.
