Cannabis customers and businesses deserve a safe and convenient way to pay for products. We’re cautiously optimistic about this legislation.

Our mission: We aim to provide a platform for multiple perspectives relating to the defective system of cannabis law in the United States. Decades of unsupported policies and the enforcement of the laws born of those policies have and continue to facilitate government overreach as well as create undue hardship in low- income and minority communities. Core will curate exhibits that urge people to look back at events and influences that sculpted our relationship with cannabis, as well as recognize and memorialize the inequitable events leading up to the multi-billion dollar industry that is cannabis today. #cannabis #cannabisjustice #justice #cannabislegalization #marijuana #marijuanalegalization #legalization #drugwar #boston #bostonma #portland #portlandme #museum #jamaicaplain #jamaicaplainma #criminaljustice #criminaljusticereform #monday #mondaymotivation #museums #missionstatement
