Honoring Black history and culture should never be confined to the shortest month of the year. Rather, Black history is impossible to separate from cannabis history — and American history as a whole. As such, we’re using Black History Month as an opportunity to share our favorite black-owned cannabis brands to encourage our readers to add these companies to their repertoire for year-round support.<\/p>\n

*Bonus Brand* Veriheal<\/h3>\n

We may be biased, but we think this particular Black-owned cannabis brand deserves a little attention, too. After all, Veriheal isn\u2019t just a leading medical card provider and innovative health-tech platform \u2014 it\u2019s a company that has actively shaped the conversation around medical cannabis access, patient rights, and industry equity. Founded by Joshua Green and Samuel Adetunji, Veriheal goes beyond just connecting patients with physicians for medical marijuana cards<\/a>; it challenges stigma, advocates for reform, and prioritizes education in a space often clouded by misinformation. Unlike other platforms that simply facilitate transactions, Veriheal has built an ecosystem where patients can make informed decisions about cannabis as medicine.<\/p>\n

What makes Veriheal stand out is its commitment to accessibility and social responsibility. The company recognizes the systemic injustices tied to cannabis prohibition and has actively worked to counteract them since its inception, whether through its Innovation in Cannabis Scholarship<\/a>, its ever-growing educational platform<\/a>, its participation in groundbreaking cannabis research<\/a>, or its founding mission of making cannabis access easier and more dignified. Instead of treating cannabis as just another business, Veriheal treats it as a movement. By merging technology with advocacy, the Veriheal team is not just helping patients get access to cannabis: we’re helping to shape a more informed, equitable, and destigmatized future for our industry.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
