Shawn Carter (Jay Z) loves the legalization of Marijuana in his home state.
On Wednesday, New York approved of the Marijuana legalization and Taxation Act.
Carter spoke about the long hardships African-Americans faced when he was coming up.
“It represents a long-overdue opportunity for New Yorkers, for the cannabis industry, and for social equity and social justice. I’ve seen firsthand the harm inflicted for generations against black and minority communities by the war on drugs right here in New York,” per the Grio.
This was coming really soon and for Cannabis lovers, they’ll enjoy it in New York.
