Ep 1003 | What If We Decriminalized Drugs? | Guest: Christina Dent

Today we sit down with author Christina Dent. Christina's nonprofit, "End it For Good," advocates for the decriminalization of drugs and a shift away from a criminal justice approach and towards a health centered approach to address America's drug and overdose epidemic. But does decriminalization actually work? What would this look like in America? And where's the line between a compassionate, health driven approach and complete lawlessness that creates unsafe cities?
