Drug Futurisms
After over 100 years of drug prohibition, it is hard to imagine a different future. What would the world look like if drugs were legal? In Drug Futurisms, we explore other possible drug worlds.
Many of us live under some form of government created overdose crisis. Prohibitionists argue that changing punitive drug laws would exacerbate the harms of drugs. Activists and harm reductionists spend so much time fighting this idea that they rarely have a chance to imagine how things could be. What could the future hold, how could we make ourselves and our loved ones safer? If drugs were regulated differently what sorts of community and harm reduction practices could exist?
Drug Futurisms is a podcast co-hosted by Claire Zagorski and Alex Betsos. We come from different worlds, Claire from chemistry and pharmacy, Alex from sociology and anthropology. But we share a common goal. Imagining that another drug world is possible
