War on DRUGS
Episode 8
Wednesday, 27 April, 2022

Republished for your pleasure. Originally aired June 2020. The "war on drugs" is an intentionally racist government program that has disrupted Black and other underrepresented communities throughout the nation for over 30 years. Steve and Decatur discuss the history of this domestic "war" on our own communities, drug policy, and why our government tells us drugs are bad when all the "cool" kids in school told you otherwise. Decatur put together an apple music playlist with songs about the war on drugs here: https://music.apple.com/us/playlist/war-on-drugs/pl.u-76oNPMNu414dWW You can check out Michelle Alexander's full speech about the war on drugs, excerpted in the episode, here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P75cbEdNo2U Michelle Alexander's full book, The New Jim Crow, can be purchased here: https://newjimcrow.com/ Check out the official music video for Killer Mike's song, Reagan, here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6lIqNjC1RKU Cover photo by Roberto Valdivia on Unsplash
