White Lines, Black Epidemic: The NEW Black American Cocaine epidemic

[deeznutz93]

No, We don't. 400 years of slavery Jim Crow redlining and de facto segregation would do that to you.

If we don't empathize with each other, we're finished as a group. It's scary and sad at the same time.

You would think more of us would be understanding of why someone would do drugs in America. Considering our history. But instead you get people like @Lifejennings and @Shook

Black folks too broke for cocaine.

These are adults, they chose to do this. I feel for them as much as I do those opioid cacs. Nothing.

Maybe, but for some of us too many of us this is how they did with being black in America. Taking dope to numb some of the pain. Look I haven't how many threads you see on the coli about smoking this and taking that I think it's pretty sad but obviously this is how a whole lot of us cope.

As far as myself I'm anti drug and don't drink much, but I understand that some people need an outlet. My only thing is to do it responsibly and keep control of life.

One doesn't have to look to far in "urban" american cities to see what the destruction of drugs and alcohol have had on the black community.

It's the 50-64 age range...

I'm guessing these are professionals, people who are retired, injured on the job, or have decent jobs.

Even Black people at that age range can't afford a Cocaine habit.

Things like homelessness,untreated forms of mental illness and the other harsh realities of life would lead most people to drug use and alcoholism.

Articles like this are white supremacist propaganda. They are making fun of our noses. No joke. Fake news.

Hahahahaha. You don't know how cheap the shyt is. And with weed being legalized more and more places, the price is gonna stay low. Drug dealers are gonna deal. Period.

 

[Secure Da Bag]

So now coke is the new crack?

We're trying to go back to the 80s?

Has anyone asked these black people how they are getting coke easier than weed?
Has anyone asked these black people why they want a coke habit instead of weed?
