I thought that was still on conspiracy theory stage. CIA’s involvement in drug trade is known and proven, them using it as a tool against black people not so much
In that case you have to say that it was purely accidental that heroin tore through the ghetto while most of white society was unaffected. And then the same thing happened accidentally twenty years later.
And then compare and contrast to the current opioid crisis, which did affect all strata of society because prescription drugs were marketed to doctors as safe.
I mean factors like poverty surely pay a role. It’s often the poor communities that are hit the hardest by drug epidemics. So no surprise that the black community was hit the hardest but the influx of drugs did hit other communities too.
We know drugs were brought in and they hit poor urban communities the hardest. For intention you’d sorta need something to actually show for it imo.
