Is it really true that the Reagan Administration deliberately imported Crack/Cocaine to the ghettos?

Question by ABESHA FOR LIFE.!♥: Is it really true that the Reagan Administration deliberately imported Crack/Cocaine to the ghettos?
To make the community stay down. Like African American/ Hispanic communities to keep from interfering…?

I heard some of this from rappers’ songs like “My President” by Young Jeezy that hinted:

“…For some strange reason my son is addicted to polo’s”
I don’t know if this is in direct contact, but sounds like it has some relation….

and Kanye West said in the song “Crack Music”:

“How [did] we stop the Black Panthers?/Ronald Reagan cooked up an answer,”
Inferring that Ronald Reagan intentionally put drugs in the ghettos

My dad, an educated man, says that it [might] had happened. And that white leaders keep African Americans under the influence so THEY don’t have any influence.

Is it a true or could it really have a POSSIBILITY to be true?

This is a real question btw I’ve been wondering for a long time

It’s partially true – the Contras which were secretly funded by Reagan did export cocaine to the USA. That insn’t the same thing as direct funding of the drugs trade though.
