What does it mean to talk about making cannabis "equitable"?

I'm reading "Miss Grass Wants to Make Cannabis More Equitable," an interview with Kate Miller, the CEO of Miss Grass, an online cannabis shop for all things cannabis. She says:

[W]e all have a responsibility to be conscious leaders, amplifying the right people to support an equitable industry. This plant has a very complex history to it. But the short of it is that it has been used to disenfranchise and harm Black and brown communities. Legalization is starting to sweep our nation, but when you look at the leaders in the space, unfortunately, you still see a lot of white men. It’s our responsibility to honor this plant and to support the people whose backs this industry was built on, to make sure that they have their place in actually benefiting from this plant’s legalization.... ... I want us to be a part of creating a model of an industry that’s equitable, that really shifts the fabric of our society, that is led with compassion and empathy and collaboration. I think that cannabis has such a immense opportunity to be that industry, and it damn well should be given its very complex and, frankly, racist history of making sure that the people who have been harmed the most by its prohibition are the ones that have an opportunity to benefit and create generational wealth from legalization.

That makes some sense. There is a racist history to marijuana! I could see laughing at "honor this plant," but actually, I'm generally inclined to honor plants, whether they insinuate their way psychedelically into my brain or not. 

Why, just this morning, I honored a random plant simply for existing in the sunlight (and I wasn't even high):
