They Targeted Hippies and Black Communities on Purpose #history #darktruth #shortsAdded:
In 1994, John Ehrlichman, Nixon's domestic policy chief, gave an interview. [music] He said this, "We knew we couldn't make it illegal to be either against the war or black, but by getting the public to associate hippies with marijuana and blacks with heroin, and then criminalizing both heavily, we could disrupt those communities. We knew we were lying [music] about the drugs."
He waited until Nixon was dead to say it.
