The ACLU's 2021 annual report shares how the organization fought back against this year's barrage of state legislation aimed at suppressing the vote, banning abortion, restricting transgender rights, and more.
The report celebrates major victories, including the ACLU's Supreme Court win protecting the free speech rights of 50 million public school students, and reflects on key moments throughout the organization's history, such as Tinker v. Des Moines—the landmark student speech case that set the precedent for this year's win. There are also inspiring stories of families within the ACLU community who are empowering the next generation of activists.

This ACLU research report, A Tale of Two Countries: Racially Targeted Arrests in the Era of Marijuana Reform, details marijuana arrests from 2010 to 2018 and examines racial disparities at the national, state, and county levels.
Updating our previous report, The War on Marijuana in Black and White, that examined arrests from 2000 to 2010, this report reveals that the racist war on marijuana is far from over. More than six million arrests occurred between 2010 and 2018, and Black people are still more likely to be arrested for marijuana possession than white people in every state, including those that have legalized marijuana. With detailed recommendations for governments and law enforcement agencies, this report provides a detailed road map for ending the War on Marijuana and ensuring legalization efforts center racial justice.
