100: THE CRACK LEGACY

Very informativve. Well documented. A story 'of Color' as they say. But while Color is a term meant as a Racial slur, I see it as a fitting and aptly descriptive term for all people. Drugs don't affect people of one color differently than they do people of a different color. Drugs have a devastatingly affect on people all colors. We need to get our collective head out of our backside and approach the drug problem, our national drug problem, seriously. Great series! KUDOS, Audible!

Politically charged from the beginning. agenda was overbearing.

Politically charged from the beginning. agenda was overbearing. Very Very biased. Was looking for enlightenment and found this instead. Lets move forward away from the conspiracy theories.

super eye opening

It's messed up when you look at folks who are forced into a helpless cycle just because the nation discriminates subliminally on the basis of color. Sometimes I'm proud of the USA, but this is not one of those times.

Zero Remorse

I couldn’t continue with this stuff. Trying to make POS people into victims. I’m sorry, but I am not going to support anyone that does drugs or violence. Drug laws too stiff? Don’t do drugs! Don’t be a POS! Don’t do the crime if you can’t do the time!

wish it were longer

liked it. thank you for the historical and modern perspective. I wish a few more cases were included

just listening to the lies..

tell it how it really went..point blank.. good history lesson though. back to my headadphones.
