With the opioid epidemic in full swing it\\u2019s easy to forget our last big drug epidemic - crack. I speak with author David Farber I had a chance to interview David Farber, author of Crack: Rock Cocaine, Street Capitalism and the Decade of Greed. It\\u2019s a riveting history of the crack cocaine years and the impact of the drug to generations of people of color caught in a web of addiction and incarceration.
