This week on Century of Lies: Righting Wrongs Worldwide - #Reform2023 Highlights Part Two.

The Drug Policy Alliance held its 2023 biennial international Reform conference over the weekend of Oct. 19-21. Over a thousand activists, advocates, organizers, researchers, and others were in attendance discussing human rights, harm reduction, the criminal legal system, and of course drug policies around the world.

On this edition of Century we hear Professor Samuel K. Roberts, PhD, Associate Professor of History and of Sociomedical Sciences at the Mailman School of Public Health at Columbia University, on OPCs, Gentrification, and Resource Allocation in Marginalized Communities; Colleen Daniels, Deputy Director of Harm Reduction International, on the topic Cashing in on the Drug War in Daily Life: Following the Money and Motivation of the Drug War Profiteers Within and Beyond the Criminal System; and Dudu Ribeiro with the Brazilian Drug Policy Platform Network Righting Wrongs Worldwide: Drug War Reparations in a Global Context.

Part One of our coverage appears on the October 23, 2023 edition of Prison Pipeline, A 'Kinder, Gentler' Drug War And Other Lies: #Reform2023 Highlights Part One.
