"The pledge to wage "relentless warfare" on drugs was, I found, first made in the 1903s, by a man who has been largely forgotten today... Harry Anslinger" -Johann Hari in Chasing the Screams ]]> 2018-11-29 22:21:00 UTC https://padlet.com/kdwing05/kwe42ggo4hea/wish/309582431 kdwing05 https://padlet.com/kdwing05/kwe42ggo4hea/wish/309595426 The jazz world is apart of this book because of all the alcohol and drugs in the clubs. People come to the club to party and have a good time. The people in the jazz world stuck together against the police. "Anslinger's men could find almost no one among them who was willing to snitch, and whenever one of them was busted, they all chipped in to bail him out." - Johann Hari in Chasing the Screams ]]> 2018-11-29 23:20:51 UTC https://padlet.com/kdwing05/kwe42ggo4hea/wish/309595426 kdwing05 https://padlet.com/kdwing05/kwe42ggo4hea/wish/309615013 In the book Johann talks to Rosalio Reta, who is a gang member, about his life. Rosalio lived in a town across from the border in Texas that had a lot of cartel gangs. For most people in that town joining a gang was their only way to live. "If you're not a cop, you're a drug dealer. If you're not a drug dealer, you work for the cartel."- Rosalio Reta in Chasing the Screams]]> 2018-11-30 01:27:07 UTC https://padlet.com/kdwing05/kwe42ggo4hea/wish/309615013 kdwing05 https://padlet.com/kdwing05/kwe42ggo4hea/wish/309618579 As drugs became more popular gangs started to form. Drugs became so important to drug dealers that they were killing each other over it. And that at least half of the youth is selling drugs in the U.S. "The National Youth Gang Center has discovered that youth gangs like the Souls of Mischief are responsible for between 23 and 45 percent of all drugs sales in the United States."- Johann Hari in Chasing the Screams]]> 2018-11-30 01:49:37 UTC https://padlet.com/kdwing05/kwe42ggo4hea/wish/309618579
