The War on Drugs and the problem of poverty are very intertwined. This is an economic problem perpetuated by laws that are harsher on and mostly imposed on the poor. Just happens that blacks have been economically disadvantaged (for some unknown reason cause according to new history books) so statistically if someone is black they're far more likely to be poor than someone that's white.
