What Smoking Pot Every Day Does For Me “I have two options. I can wake and bake, or I can take two benzos instead of one.”
And not in that Radiohead “Fitter, happier, more productive” sort of way. More like a Sublime “Lovin’ is what I got” vibe.I can get away with this because I’m blue-eyed and white. Social services would take one look at me and say, “We’re sorry, ma’am. In this state, we do not remove children from parents with blue eyes unless they are being horrifically abused.” And if theyI’d have every lawyer in this state squeezing them until they begged for mercy, because privilege.
So while daily pot smoking helps me to people better, live a more normal life, and keep my family on an even keel, BIPOC are denied that right. Obviously, this is grossly unfair, and doesn’t begin to touch issues of marijuana and BIPOC communities, including higher rates of incarceration and longer prison sentences.But privilege means awareness, not guilt; it brings with it a duty to work towards bettering a situation, not a need to shame yourself.
