[Contains explicit content] The “war on crack” is over, but the legacy of that battle is alive today – especially in police departments around the country. In this episode, we look at how changes in police practices and attitudes reaching back at least three decades are still shaping the way cops behave, especially towards black Americans. And we explore police behavior as an extension of a larger understanding of blacks as inherently criminal - and the future of that understanding under President Donald Trump.

This series is really well made and informative, and goes to along way to explain the excesses of police and justice system in the USA. It should be required listening for all politicians. Time for evidence based drug policy.
