It is because of this that censorship of music on the radio is so necessary for a country with the potential it has to thrive.

The War on Drugs in Correlation with Racism Drugs and racism. The two seem distant, yet through careful analysis a trend can start to emerge in regards to the dichotomy under scrutiny.
