If you haven't read PHARMA yet, I encourage you to order a copy and read it. History and true crime all wrapped into one great book.

Not every cancelled #books event gets rescheduled virtually. Many people in South Florida were looking forward to tonight's #PHARMA presentation at @TheBetsyHotel, a literary oasis in Miami Beach. Hopefully, I will be there on the other side of this pandemic

This is how deep our stigma is toward people who use drugs and how committed to upholding the drug war our institutions are. It’s shameful.

Well, I tried to petition for early reinstatement of my nursing license in order to serve my state during the #COVID19 pandemic, but that won’t happen until I have 5 years of documented recovery. So, 2.5 more years of dehumanizing drug screens and AA meetings 3x/week.

Impacted people and “on the ground” folks have been saying this for a while and yet everyone’s misguided and harmful answer to the overdose crisis is to crack down on prescribing. reason.com/2020/01/23/peo…

What a great article... the work of Harm Reductionist's is very hard.. It is time for us all to realize what we have traditionally done does not always work

Can Harm Reduction and Abstinence-Based Models of Substance Use Recovery Constructively Co-Exist? The short answer is, YES, but it's gonna be uncomfortable. filtermag.org/harm-reduction… via @Filtermag_org #HarmReduction #Recovery
