The Roots of Britain's 50-Year Drug War w/ Kojo Koram

This week, Grace talks to Kojo Koram, lecturer in law at Birkbeck and author of several books, including The War on Drugs and the Global Colour Line. We discuss Mayor of London Sadiq Khan's plan to conduct a review on the legalisation of cannabis, the roots of drugs criminalisation, the neoliberal roots of the war on drugs, and why decriminalisation will save lives.
