I saw an ad for the new season the other day, thought it was a new show lol. Not sure how I hadn't heard of it previously, considering the rave reviews the show seems to get.

Anyway when I saw this post it reminded me of seeing the ad, so I looked it up and saw that the show explores the CIA/US gov't's ushering in of the crack epidemic in deep detail so I'm def more interested than I probably would be otherwise, for the reasons outlined herein (stereotypes of Black drug dealers being so prevalent, etc.). So I've added this to my list, will hopefully/probably check it out at some point.
