Bev Smith and William Hosea welcome guest Guy Loftman, along with BIO contributor Cornelius Wright.

PART ONE
Back on November 5, 2013, the public was invited to explore alternatives to the war on drugs. The event, co-sponsored by the Monroe County Branch of the NAACP, gave a prevailing thought that there is much evidence that the War on Drugs is, at least in effect, a war on Black males, as shown in the book “The New Jim Crow”, by Michelle Alexander.

Joining Bev and William are Local Bloomington Attorney Guy Loftman, is a member of the Legal Redress Committee of the Monroe County Branch of the NAACP,  and Bring It On! contributor Cornelius Wright to share in a discussion on how damaging illegal drug usage is on black males.

PART TWO
Headline news and local calendar events of interest to the African-American community.
