• The cannabis and cryptocurrency industries have significant potential to provide opportunities for empowerment, closing the racial wealth gap.
• Increasing financial literacy and democratizing access to information and resources remains a top priority, especially as we navigate emerging technology.
• Rather than a one-size-fits-all approach, strategic coalition-building and direct messaging prove more successful in amplifying diverse voices.
