America's drug laws have always exerted an unequal and unfair toll
on Blacks and Latinos, who are arrested more often than Whites for
the possession of illegal drugs and given harsher sentences. In
this volume, contributors ask how would marijuana legalization
affect communities of color? Is legalization of marijuana necessary
to safeguard minority families from a lifetime of hardship and
inequality? Who in minority communities favors legalization and
why, and do these minority opinions differ from the opinions held
by White Americans? This volume also includes analyses of the
policy debate by a range of scholars addressing economic, health,
and empowerment issues. Comparative lessons from other countries
are also analyzed.
