#15: Shame
from The Dr. Junkie Show · host Benjamin Boyce
In this episode I will talk about shame, where it comes from and how it poisons those who experience it. The war on drugs only works with the central pillar of Shame in tact, yet we have made a political habit of talking about "destigmatization," and "shame reduction" of late. Our lip service is worthless, counterproductive even, so long as we don't actually change anything. This episode is about what to change, how to change it, and why it was fucked up in the first place. Support the show
