Question

The war on Drugs was, in some respects, the launching point for mass incarceration, fueled in large part by the crack cocaine epidemic that plagued Black communities in the 80's and 90's. The response by and large was mass incarceration and criminalization. What do you think Black communities would be like today if the response to the Crack epidemic was the same as the current, treatment-based, response to the opioid crisis? What do you think could or should be done to mitigate the harm that's already been done by those disparate responses to the crises?
