This article by Judah Taylor and
Sohini DasGupta paints a bigger
picture and connects the dots
about nicotine addiction as it compares
two culturally very different places
thousands of miles apart where
smoking is not as intensely under
attack as in more health oriented
countries and states. The glaring
similarity is how Big Tobacco
preys on the poor. This 1964 photo
from the William Gedney
Photographic Collection at Duke
University captures the ingrained
nature of tobacco in Kentucky.
