Biden pardons thousands of people convicted of marijuana possessions
Move is latest in round of executive clemencies meant to rectify racial disparities in the justice system
Joe Biden is pardoning thousands of people who were convicted of use and simple possession of marijuana on federal lands and in the District of Columbia, the White House said Friday – his latest round of executive clemencies meant to rectify racial disparities in the justice system.
The US president is also granting clemency to 11 people serving what the White House called “disproportionately long” sentences for nonviolent drug offenses.
Biden said his actions would help make the “promise of equal justice a reality”.

More than 50 Northampton High School students staged an early walkout of school on Tuesday in protest of the ongoing war between Israel and Hamas, demanding a permanent cease-fire to the conflict and strongly criticizing Israel’s actions in Gaza since the war’s outbreak, saying it was tantamount to genocide.
“The goal of this gathering is not to spew hatred or condemn anybody but to promote peace and education,” said Sanza Parzybok, 17, one of several students who spoke at the event. “The sustained attack on Gaza is a brutal, unjust demonstration of military force that has resulted in unimaginable suffering and pain.”
