The system has been designed in a racist way...you get a public defender that is basically working like a puppy mill- just one at a time.
Ever wondered what it's like to navigate the wild world of drugs and come out the other side with stories worth sharing? In this episode of 'The Peace on Drugs', host Aaron Akulis sits down with Jeff Greene, a musician from Southwest Florida, who takes us on a rollercoaster ride through his past drug experiences.
From a peyote trip that ended in an unexpected shopping spree—naked at a neighborhood garage sale—to deeper discussions about addiction and recovery, this episode has it all. Jeff and Aaron don't shy away from the tough topics. They dive into the damaging effects of the war on drugs, highlighting how it pushes addicts from clinics to the streets.
The conversation also touches on the slow but promising shift in public perception as more states move towards legalizing cannabis and decriminalizing psychedelics. They also shed light on the systemic racism embedded in the criminal justice system, emphasizing the need for compassionate and informed approaches to drug use and addiction. Jeff's candid storytelling and Aaron's insightful questions make this episode a compelling listen for anyone interested in the complexities of drug policy, addiction, and the transformative potential of psychedelics.
Whether you're looking for a personal connection or broader societal insights, this episode offers both with a touch of humor and a lot of heart. As Jeff puts it, 'The system has been designed in a racist way...you get a public defender that is basically working like a puppy mill—just one at a time'. This episode isn't just about wild drug tales; it's a call for change and understanding in how we approach addiction and drug use.
