Sam Quinones on America's Drug-Trafficking Crisis and Community Resilience

If we live next to two Canada's, we wouldn't be having, I don't believe, the problem that we have with the supply.
How does a community heal when faced with an overwhelming drug crisis? Sam Quinones, a renowned journalist and author, joins Dr. Roneet Lev on 'High Truths on Drugs and Addiction' to tackle this pressing question. Quinones, known for his insightful narratives on America's opioid epidemic, dives into the grim realities of the current drug-trafficking landscape in his latest book, 'The Least of Us'. He paints a vivid picture of how cheaper, deadlier drugs are flooding communities already ravaged by addiction.
But it’s not all doom and gloom; Quinones also shares stories of hope and resilience, highlighting everyday acts of kindness that help rebuild broken communities. This episode doesn't just explore the harrowing impact of addiction on families and society but also emphasizes the critical role of community support in combating this crisis. Quinones' perspective is both eye-opening and heartening, offering a blend of hard truths and hopeful narratives.
Perfect for those seeking to understand the complexities of addiction and the power of community-driven solutions.
