    The history of harm reduction in the United States, led by people who use drugs, needs to be remembered, celebrated and understood—especially as a backlash full of lies and disinformation about what harm reduction means is unleashed across the country and beyond.

    Dr. Edwin Salsitz is a methadone OG. He was one of a coterie of New York City doctors who pioneered its use to treat opioid use disorder back in the 1980s, including Drs.

    “The fiction that permeates the museum is that DEA is somehow winning a drug war that is justified.”By Helen Redmond, FilterWhy would anyone visit the DEA Museum?

    Why would anyone visit the DEA Museum? My excuse was to see all the lies and misinformation in one place. And I wanted to understand how the curators sold and sanitized the “War on Drugs.” I was not disappointed. On the museum website, I got a preview of how brazen it would be.

Warden Mark Parrino @AATOD1984 doesn't want to take the liquid handcuffs off prisoners in opioid treatment PRISONS. He doesn't want them to get a script from a doctor & pick it up at the pharmacy. Parrino loves the status quo & DEA @FreeMethadone @abolishOTPs
