“Both well-researched and an exhilarating read, Drugs as Weapons Against Us exposes the dark history of the state’s use of drugs as both a tool of imperialism abroad and of social control at home.”
— Kara Dellacioppa, chair of the Sociology Department, California State University;
author, This Bridge Called Zapatismo; editor, Cultural Politics and Resistance in the 21st Century
“This book is magnificent!… I feel so empowered!”
— Pam Africa, Co-director of International Concerned Friends and Family of Mumia Abu-Jamal.
“Potash tackles a broad spectrum of topics that converge on the issue of drugs, with an emphasis on the 1960s to the present. [He] quickly gets into government experimentation and abuse of mind-altering chemicals… It’s an incredible story, but just one of a hundred in Drugs as Weapons Against Us… Readable, compelling, and packed with stunning information, Potash’s book works both as a terrific introduction for the beginner and an excellent resource for the veteran researcher.”
— Joseph Green, author of Dissenting Views, and lead screenwriter on King Kill ’63.
