Like Rafi Crockett said “Doing the work ain't really work when you're surrounded by your brilliant sistas. So thankful to have them on my left and my right at all times.” #reform2023 #nomoredrugwar

NIDA director #NoraVolkow was just asked in a session at #Reform2023 if she hires anyone on her team who uses drugs.
Her response: “No, it’s illegal, and I would go to jail. I wouldn’t want that”
What a joke. Stop with the excuses, and do something. NIDA feeds the drug war!
“‘Race neutral’ drug policy ultimately benefits white people. We need anti-racist drug policy.” - Jules Netherland, with Helena Hanson, co-authors of ‘Whiteout: How Racial Capitalism Changed the Color of Opioids in America” speaking at #Reform2023
Together we chanted:
- End oppression, not life
- End exploitation, not life
- End desperation, not life
End the drug war. Invest in people.
What an inspiring speech by Kokila Annamalai, Community Organiser, Transformative Justice Collective in Singapore.

We’re here for you!

Hugely packed house at #Reform2023 for a discussion of how to effectively communicate about drugs and the drug war.
Very grateful for this actionable and concise toolkit!
'Harm reduction is part of the recovery process. Harm reductionists do not reject abstinence. We simply provide the service that the people we're working with tell us they need.' #Reform2023
Lets talk about the privilege of speak in English.

All my admiration to my friends!✊🏿
