What Anthropology Taught Me About Racism, Drugs & the Stories We Tell Ourselves

Send us Fan MailI thought I was taking a course about drugs at University. Instead, I learned about race, power, history, and the stories we tell ourselves about addiction. In this episode of Women on the Brink, I share the lessons that shocked me the most; from the racial history of the War on Drugs to why some people are treated as criminals while others are seen as victims. We also explore how these issues affect women, Indigenous communities, and why education and empathy are essential if we want to build a more just Canada. I hope this conversation leaves you asking new questions, just as it did for me.Listen now and join the conversationSupport the showThanks for listening and feel free to follow us on different social media platforms - Instagram, Facebook, and YouTube and on our website www.womenonthebrink.net.  If you're wanting to connect with the host, Chris Jeffrey R.Ac. for further information, you can do so here:Contact Chris
