But If i'm being honest sometimes I wonder during the 80's and 90's did BLACK political leaders do enough to push for aide/help during the crack crisis?

I'm talking about the mayors, senators, congressmen/women...a lot of cities ran by black mayors locked a lot of black folks up too

I know they didn't have Narcan, but why wasn't there something like "cold turkey" houses set up specifically for recovering addicts that cost them 0 money, all funded by the democratic party?

they were supposed to be helping us right?

You are speaking from a 2019 pov. Black people of the crack era was asking politicians to do something about the crime.

Black ppl be cryin' when tragedy strikes others.

Nah bruh, i've very much so I remember those years very well

and my argument isn't about crime, it's about helping the addiction part of it (which is what this article is about)

I'm just wondering if our leaders did enough for them as opposed to just focusing on the cats selling the dope.
