Drug Use in a Black Ghetto
Abstract
The findings of this relatively bias-free interview study of 92 ghetto youths in a work training program suggest that "normal" drug use in the ghetto is more comparable to nonghetto drug use than has previously been believed. Also, studies that suggest high ghetto rates of heroin use where marijuana use is high (or at least culturally accepted without sanction) may be specifying small, specific population sectors rather than the ghetto as a whole.
