Black or African~Americans have NEVER been in a position of bringing drugs into these United States of America! Rich Caucasians bring them in and saturate the Black neighborhoods with it to do their dirt. How could Blacks be in a position of not getting frisked coming and going, ANY TIME WHITE~Europeans would make African SLAVES and Black slaves guess how many jelly beans are in a damn jar before they were allowed to VOTE. Wake UP!!!
And one last thing, i really dont understand, if everyone knows drugs are illegal, whether you agree with it or not, thats the way it is, i like the fact this lady expresses how she feels about the topic in a constructive way, but everyone knows (or should know) even possession, of these substance is against the law, and the consequences are [X].
I disagree with many laws, but since I dont make the rules,I know you must follow them, these are things i feel like little kids need to be taught
@jpoker27 That is the same argument that Fundamentalists use, citing the 13th Chapter of Romans to rationalize the ideology of Mussolini. Representative government in America went the way of the Unicorns a long time ago. "It's the law," only means, "It's the best law money can buy." There are those that would contend it is our moral obligation to break the law. Certainly you righties threaten revolution, every time you lose an election. I guess it's only illegal when Democrats do it.
When President Nixon declared "War on Drugs", Do you feel as though his main intention was specifically targeted to slow down the advancements of a specific ethnic group?
Or do you think at least in the beginning his intentions were good?
The president of mexico declared a war on drugs, I feel as though it has failed but regardless I think it was done in the interest of the citizens of mexico,
@jpoker27 President Nixon sent Kissinger to Mexico, and in exchange for logistical support, paraquotting the marijuana fields, he pulled half the Border Patrol, setting the stage for the Columbian and Syndicate victory against the Mexican Mafia over drug traffic in the Western U.S., and 4 decades of Union Busting, illegal immigration. Was Nixon well meaning? WTF? No one but a rigid ideologue believes for one moment that Nixon was anything but a crook.
(cont'd from below) of violent crimes. At least thats what wikipedia said and that doesnt include state prisons, but its actually the opposite of everything she said.
this lady actually truly believes that the idea behind criminalizing drugs is designed to target (hurt) people of race.
There are legit opinions on incarceration/drugs/ect, and if she wants to make a change,she better come up with a better argument i think,
@jpoker27 It is an absolute, historical fact, that all modern legal drug proscriptions originate in racism. Cocaine crazed "negroes" hyped up and wanting to rape white women. That is precisely how that law was marketed originally. Marijuana laws were the same, except the targetted population was Southwestern Hispanics that have been flowing back and forth across that border since before the Pilgrims hit Plymouth Rock. Watch the History Channels' specials on the history of drug prohibition.
There is not one radical idea in any of Ms. Alexander's thesis. It is accepted fact by every expert, with the only exception being, racist apologists.

Believe it or not I have seen the episodes you might be referring to, They are called "Hooked?" a series on the history channel. It sure isn't fact to me, Maybe more people have this similar opinion than I originally realized, slavery, the civil rights movement, these were events based solely on racism, that you read in history textbooks during grade school, I dont remember being told that illicit drug use would be acceptable as long as you are caucasian.
WOW, I totally respect the views/opinion of this lady, but in my opinion, she is absolutely amazingly wrong about almost everything she states. She stated that the war on drugs was targeted not because of crime or violence, but an effort to segregate or go after people of color in inner cities. and she makes the statement as if its not her opinion, its FACT. lol, also if u look at federal prison statistics, i think whites make up the majority of drug offenses and blacks make up the majority
There are a lot of educated innocent people in California jails now for crimes they did not commit. I have a Masters degree and they are trying to entrap me as a domestic terrorist. I do not even own pepper spray. I could use some help. My cases against the government, Kaiser hospital and California Nurses association are definitely lucrative. email at forthe_1789usconstitution@yahoo.com if you can help. The case would further OUR cause.
LOL, right on brother. Michelle handle that with intellect and pure fiyah.....lol. Like a couple of Afro scholars say "this is the Elite last hope to keep minorities in check". After this trick is exposed by us, Latinos, and intelligent and caring whites.....the prison system is the last straw of instituitionalized modern day slavery. The anti-prison movement is taking flight bro...
Mass Incarceration is 21 century slavery. I read this whole book and the proof is in the pudding. Then they are released into second-class citizen ship for these petty crimes. They privatize the prison system so they reap profits by the more inmates just like slavery. They only target poor people of color communities and ignore the rest. Let's join this wonderful woman Michelle in the anti-prison movement. This system must be TRANSFORMED!!! Educate NOT Incarcerate!
