This week, Alex and Donny talk to Liz Jackson-Simpson, the Chief Executive Officer of Success Centers, and her colleague Angela White, Success Centers’ Equity for Industry Program Manager. Success Centers is a San Francisco Bay Area-based nonprofit, originally founded over three decades ago by judges to help provide opportunities to youth in the juvenile justice system, and has since expanded to empower marginalized communities in the Bay Area -- including through job training in the cannabis sector.We also discuss the niche sector of military veterans providing security for cannabis cash, featured in Los Angeles magazine.Read more about Success Centers: https://successcenters.org and their equity programs here: https://successcenters.org/employment/urban-connections-program/equity-for-industry-training/ Also follow them on social media: https://twitter.com/SuccessCenterSFhttps://www.instagram.com/415queencannabis/https://www.instagram.com/successcenters/https://www.facebook.com/successcenters/Check out the Los Angeles magazine story on military veterans providing security for the cannabis industry: https://www.lamag.com/citythinkblog/military-veteran-cannabis/We also mentioned senate majority leader Mitch McConnell’s trip to Cannabis country: https://www.sfchronicle.com/opinion/lastword/article/Last-Word-Mitch-McConnell-s-strange-trip-to-14515939.phpOur music this week is a cover, by vocalist Michael Marshall, of “San Francisco (Flowers In Your Hair)” from the film, “The Last Black Man in San Francisco”: https://a24films.com/films/the-last-black-man-in-san-francisco.Listen to Michael Marshall's "San Francisco (Flowers In Your Hair)" here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3d3QbwWnLbc (And finally, check out the Weed Week episode on Craig Gross that we mentioned. https://soundcloud.com/weedweeknews/58-holy-smokes-christians-and-cannabis-with-craig-gross
