The Truth On How Drugs Became Illegal

This was on the History Channel the other day. The name of the program is "Illegal Drugs And How They Got That Way". It was a very interesting program, I have seen this already but I wanted to watch again to see if they had changed anything. They didn't so this is the short of it, around 80 years ago it was common for people to use cocaine regurlarly, and legally. Slave masters would give cocaine to slaves and workers so that they wouldn't get tired as easy. Word started to spread to the north that "Drug crazed negroes" were attacking their white masters, and the drug (and all intoxicants) were declared illegal for all minorities. Watch it and tell me what you think.
