Who started the War on Drugs? Harry J. Anslinger
Credited with the start of Reefer Madness, for 30 years, he invented insane, racist theories directed at cannabis and it’s users. This came at a time in American history where racial tensions, economic crisis, and war plagued the country. We’ve come a long way, but the war on cannabis still rings true in many states.
