Citizen the Pod taped its first live show during this years Congressional Black Caucus Foundation's Annual Legislative Conference in Washington D.C. . Keina Zontel was joined by Bear Clarke, owner of Bear's Vibes, and Taj Tashombe, Vice President of Government Affairs for Oakland Athletics. We discussed the cannabis industry, economic development strategies for communities of color and why it's important for young people to find creative ways to participate in these spaces.
