Three ways in which Reagan's War on Drugs affected the marginalized were:

  • African Americans were generally given harsher sentences for drug crimes than Hispanic or White individuals.
  • Drug enforcement agents made the majority of drug busts and arrests in communities of color in inner cities.
  • Hispanic people were more likely to be arrested for drugs than any other group in the United States.

<h3>What were the effects of Reagan's war on Drugs?
</h3>

African Americans ended up in prison for a longer time when sentenced with drug offences and Hispanic people became heavily targeted for drug arrests on account of the quantity of drugs coming in from Latin America.

Communities of color were also targeted heavily by the FBI and DEA for drug use.

What are the social and economic implications of inadequate provision of Social rented housing in South African cities?
Sergeu [11.5K]

Explanation:

In Africa, failure to address housing issues has led to the continued growth of slums and poorly serviced informal settlements on the urban periphery, where between 75% and 99% of urban residents in many African cities live in squalid slums of ramshackle housing.

Like many other countries in the world, South Africa is in the throes of an unprecedented housing crisis. It faces a growing challenge in providing all citizens with access to suitable or adequate housing despite the Constitution stating that ‘everyone has the right to have access to adequate housing’ and that the ‘state must take reasonable legislative and other measures, within its available resources, to achieve the progressive realisation of this right.

According to Statistics, South Africa’s Household Survey 2017, 12.1% (1789 million households) of South Africa’s 14.75 million households lived in informal housing in 2011 with Gauteng having 20.4% households living in informal settlements, North West, 18.5% and the Western Cape, 15.1%. Limpopo has the smallest percentage with 4.5% and the Eastern Cape has 6.5%.
