Ep. 461
The “NEW YOUTUBE SOURCE” presents an interview with Christina Dent, founder of the non-profit organization End It for Good and author of the book “Curious.” Dent, who grew up in a conservative Christian family and previously supported a criminal justice approach to drugs, shares her personal journey and change of perspective after becoming a foster parent and witnessing the negative impact of drug prohibition on children and families. She advocates for drug legalization and decriminalization, arguing that current policies lead to unintended consequences like increased crime, violence, and harm to individuals and communities, rather than addressing the root causes of addiction. The discussion highlights the importance of distinguishing between legality and morality, and rethinking drug policy through a lens of harm reduction and public health, rather than solely punishment.
