Junkie. Pothead. That’s where I’d been headed: the final, fatal role of the young would-be black man,” Obama wrote in his book Dreams From My Father: A Story of Race and Inheritance. “The highs hadn’t been about that, me trying to prove what a down brother I was. Not by then, anyway. I got high for just the opposite effect, something that could push questions of who I was out of my mind, something that could flatten out the landscape of my heart, blur the edges of my memory.”

Elsewhere in the book Obama writes, “We were always playing on the white man’s court . . . The only thing you could choose was withdrawal into a smaller and smaller coil of rage. Pot had helped, and booze; maybe a little blow when you could afford it.”
