Speaking of drugs, has anyone seen "Reefer Madness" from back in the twenties? Hillarious stuff.
But yeah the anti-drug movement in the US got started with the same temperence societies that the anti-alcohol movement did. However, race was a big factor. They did not want "foreign" drugs influencing their children, and they particularly did not want teenage girls to fall under the influence of "foreign" drug lords.
Thanks to having US History class with an ex-hippie, we learned these things in school!
