The Human Toll: How the War on Cannabis Targeted Black America, a three-part series of sobering mini-docs from Vanity Fair and electronic vaporizer maker PAX Labs, tackles that charged topic head-on.

Geneva – The Euro-Mediterranean Human Rights Monitor
and 33 other Yemeni human rights organizations have sent an
urgent letter to the European Union’s High Representative
for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy, Josep Borrell,
calling for an urgent intervention to stop the dangerous
humanitarian repercussions in Marib city northern Yemen, as
result of the Houthi attack.
The organizations said in
their letter that in the last two weeks, the Houthis have

increased their indiscriminate attacks without regard to the
basic principles of international humanitarian law and the
dangers posed to the civilian population.

Since this declaration of war, federal and state legislatures have incentivized police departments by linking funding to the number of drug arrests, while underfunding programs and policies for drug addiction prevention and rehabilitation.
