What are some good sources, preferably scholarly or academic, about drug war racism and the fact that it does nothing to curb crime except create it? Any books I should get? Good internet editorials that you know of?
Im going to get Michael Rupperts book today at the library. The teach said a party website like Montanas green party and Ron paul is not credible ![]() Thanks for any help.

I read a book last year in social deviance (oh what a class) called The Rich Get Richer and The Poor Get Prison by Jeffrey Reiman. The facts in that book, many of them pertaining to drug offenses, racism, recidivism, and other prison aspects are worth their weight in gold (assuming facts had weight).
Also, he has written other books on the same subject, so I think he'd help you out a lot, he's published and he cites his claims in-book.
