Dr. Nadelmann, thanks for your time here. I'm a soon-to-be graduate from a MPH program here in New York and my focus is on drug policy and criminal justice reform. I passionately follow the work of DPA, Open Society, VERA, and other organizations in that vein. What is the greatest need of the movement for professionals like myself to focus on? I don't want to be a full-time researcher, but I don't know if I should look towards policy advocacy or get involved directly into politics myself.

Thanks for taking the question. Any input is greatly appreciated.

How scared should we be of Jeff Sessions?

Are the initiatives to decriminalize and promote harm reduction (drug use and policing) from a racial justice standpoint and the push to promote the research of psychedelics for therapeutic purposes siloed efforts? If so, is this piecemeal approach the best route forward?
