SPACE Presents: Dope is Death

July 18, 2021 @ 7:00 pm - 10:00 pm

“Dope is Death” is the story of how Dr. Mutulu Shakur, stepfather of Tupac Shakur, along with fellow Black Panthers and the Young Lords, combined community health with radical politics to create the first acupuncture detoxification program in America in 1973 — a visionary project eventually deemed too dangerous to exist in America.

The film will be preceded by a panel discussion with local harm reduction, recovery, and community advocates and organizers, co-presented by the Church of Safe Injection.
