Meer over het boek

The book explores the cultural phenomenon of DARE, the prominent drug education program of the 1980s and 1990s, revealing its role in intertwining drug education with the War on Drugs. It examines how DARE's initiatives, marked by its iconic slogan and merchandise, masked a broader agenda that emphasized stringent policing and severe penalties, ultimately shaping the landscape of drug policy in schools. Through this lens, the narrative critiques the effectiveness and implications of such programs on youth and society.
