The War on Drugs is a feminist issue ft. Eric

  • Summary

  • DISCLAIMER: WE ARE NOT LAWYERS. AGAIN: WE ARE NOT LAWYERS. But we have a few things to say about this topic.

    Eric joined me for 4/20 week to talk about the racist War on Drugs, the US prison system, mandatory minimum sentences, cops, how women (and especially women of color) are disproportionately affected, and our rights as outlined in the Fourth Amendment. His tips for asserting your rights during your interactions with cops are absolutely necessary listening.
