Harry Anslinger Part II - For All My Dogs

We’re wrapping up the story on Harry Anslinger with the help of some incredible guests this week. We’ve got the voices of Harry Anslinger (J-L Cauvin), Dr. Woodward (Ryan Feyk), Representative McCormack (Marcus Parks), and Dr. Munch (Henry Zebrowski) to help us get across the absurdity that was the Marijuana Tax Act hearing. Let’s just say it involved a lot of talk about injecting weed into the brains of dogs. The Marijuana Tax Act furthered Harry’s anti-drug agenda which also involved him manipulating science and the media for decades and included a friendship with Joseph McCarthy. How does he do it all?! We also have the one and only, Montel Williams, host of the Let’s Be Blunt podcast, on to help us fill in the gaps with more context alongside Professor Anne Foster, and Dr. Sheila Vakharia. This one’s a doozy; you'll have to hear it to believe it!Follow The Show:Twitter: https://twitter.com/fraudstersLPNInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/fraudsterslpn/Discord: https://discord.gg/WRZ8zgusPTWebsite: https://fraudsters.fm/ Follow the Hosts: https://www.instagram.com/seenanow/?hl=enhttps://www.instagram.com/justin_williams_comedyhttps://twitter.com/arielleaty Check out Let’s Be Blunt with Montel Williams: www.letsbebluntmontel.com Follow Our Guests:https://x.com/alfhistoryhttps://www.instagram.com/myharmreduction/?hl=enhttps://x.com/myharmreductionhttps://www.instagram.com/montel_williams/?hl=enhttps://x.com/Montel_Williams Sources for this episode:The Long War on Drugs by Anne FosterChasing the Scream by Johann HariThe Protectors by John Williamshttps://www.case.org/system/files/media/file/Penn Stater Harry Anslinger.pdf[↩︎](about:blank#fnref1)https://journals.psu.edu/pmhb/article/download/44423/44144[↩︎](about:blank#fnref2)https://medium.com/timeline/harry-anslinger-racist-war-on-drugs-prison-industrial-complex-fb5cbc281189[↩︎](about:blank#fnref3)https://www.newspapers.com/image/17583610/[↩︎](about:blank#fnref4)https://www.bloodhorse.com/horse-racing/articles/237233/first-drug-czar-targeted-illegal-narcotics-in-racing[↩︎](about:blank#fnref5)https://museum.dea.gov/sites/default/files/2021-09/Standing in the Shadows 10152014--Accessible.pdf[↩︎](about:blank#fnref6)https://time.com/5638316/war-on-drugs-opium-history/[↩︎](about:blank#fnref7)https://www.politico.com/magazine/story/2015/01/drug-war-the-hunting-of-billie-holiday-114298/[↩︎](about:blank#fnref8) Media Links:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UGxzuTQVZYohttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UGxzuTQVZYo Subscribe to SiriusXM Podcasts+ to listen to new episodes of Fraudsters ad-free.
