While appearing as a speaker at South By Southwest in Austin, Texas last week, rapper Snoop Dogg spoke on the impact Ronald Reagan had on his community, during the time the former president spent in office.
Ronald Wilson Reagan (6 Februari 1911 – 5 Juni 2004) alikuwa Rais wa 40 wa Marekani kuanzia mwaka wa 1981 hadi 1989. Kaimu Rais wake alikuwa George H. Bush.
The Long Beach, California lyricist spoke
directly on “Reaganomics,” stating that the economic program Reagan
introduced in the 1980s did away with after-school programs, and
eventually contributed to guns and drugs being brought into the
community.
“When Reaganomics kicked in, certain things
were taken away, after-school programs and things of that nature,” Snoop
Dogg said, according to InFlexWeTrust.com.
“Guns and drugs were shipped into the neighborhood. So it was a shift
of having fun and playing football to selling drugs and shooting at each
other. To me it was a system that was designed, because when the
Reaganomics era began, that’s when this began.”
