(The book is a contemporary documentary exploring one of the biggest social issues in the UK - drug abuse, through the deprived, predominantly black, but white youth too. I can relate this to my study through the social realistic productions and documentary's the British TV broadcasters air - that reflect these lifestyles, that have formed stereotypes and representations - e.g. TopBoy.)

(Key Quotes in the book revolve around America's techniques in the media, that associated drugs with ethnic minorities during the "war on drugs" and the impact on their lifestyles - social and historical context on the representation of drugs in society in the US. Does this explain for the growing positive "American Dream", that US productions revolved around drugs, now convey?)
