ITEM OVERVIEW
Both a detailed chronology and analysis of the CIA's role as drug baron—from the mind-control drugs of the 40s and 50s, the heroin trade in South-East Asia, support of anti-Castro Cuban drug smugglers, and heroin-trafficking Afghan mujahideen, to the organization of drug smuggling from Latin America, most recently, the dissemination of crack into black urban neighborhoods—and, equally crucial, the government denials and convoluted and self-contradictory rationales and whitewash in the nation's most influential newspapers. In an exciting narrative, White-Out lays out in explosive detail one of the most shocking hidden histories of our time.
