Charles Rangel: America's "front-line general" in the drug war

People were absolutely in panic that the drug dealers had taken over the street - Rep. Charles Rangel (D-Harlem)

In March 1971, New York City faced a growing heroin epidemic. That year, Charles Rangel — then just 41 years old — was part of a delegation of newly-elected black congressman who won a closed-door meeting at the White House with President Richard Nixon.
It was a historic moment. Nixon had already begun the process of criminalizing drugs in new ways, ramping up the federal effort to crack down on dealers and addicts. Over the decades that followed, those policies would send millions of young black men to prison. Some African American leaders were already voicing doubts and concerns.

Check out Prison Time Media Project's detailed timeline of the black community's support for America's war on drugs, tracking how views changed and evolved over time.

But during the meeting, Rangel didn’t urge Nixon to rethink his drug war strategy. Instead, the Harlem Democrat urged Nixon to ramp up drug-fighting efforts more aggressively, more rapidly.


Of course, now it was all just Whitiey h8tin' on da hood n stuff, and these clowns pretend they dindunuttin as hacks.
