Apple Podcasts5abc-to-the-dUnited States3 years ago - War
All I worry about is you are coming from a white angle and not the history behind why the drug problem is what it is. Marginalisation war on drugs feeds the rich. Sometimes we only think of the users and forget the young people may I say children who get caught up and supply the users who the majority of have money and fund the addiction they have while accepting children are being drawn into the slavery to supply
