For 35 years, Families Against Mandatory Minimums has resisted America’s War on Drugs by sharing the stories of people subjected to unconscionable prison sentences for non-violent drug offenses.  In this episode, FAMM's general counsel Shanna Rifkin explains how the organization convinces lawmakers and communities to adopt harm reduction based approaches to drug policy, and what you can do to help the cause .
