@theynevertaughtus: The crack epidemic didn’t start in Black America by chance — it was part of a much bigger story. During the 1980s, CIA-backed operatives funneled cocaine into the U.S. to fund the Nicaraguan Contras. Much of that cocaine ended up in Black neighborhoods in L.A., triggering the rise of crack. When journalist Gary Webb exposed the connection, the media destroyed his reputation. But the damage was done: an entire generation was criminalized — not helped. Black Americans got mass incarceration. White Americans got rehab. ▶️ Follow and share for more explosive truth buried by politics and media. 💬 Should the U.S. be held responsible for what happened during the crack era? #CrackEpidemic #GaryWebb #CIAConspiracy #TheyNeverTaughtUs #LegacyLaws #MassIncarceration #HiddenBlackHistory #BlackTikTok #blacktiktokcommunity #blacktiktoks #ados #fba
