概要

What devastated my family wasn't random. It was the result of deliberate policy decisions made by people who never had to live with the consequences.


In this episode, Dorinda Walker traces four generations of addiction — from her great-grandfather's exposure to unregulated opiates in the late 1800s, through the heroin and crack epidemics that devastated Black communities, to the fentanyl crisis taking lives across every zip code in America today. She breaks down the policy decisions that created the crisis, the double standard in how it has been treated depending on who it affects, and what the current administration's cuts to addiction infrastructure mean for all of us.


This is history. This is policy. And this is personal.


Topics covered: The War on Drugs, the 100-to-1 crack sentencing disparity, the opioid double standard, fentanyl, SAMHSA funding cuts, and community-based solutions that actually work.
