Colonial harm in new packaging: Indigenous critiques of the tobacco industry's 'harm reduction' rhetoric.

Over the last 75 years, we have learned that commercial tobacco use causes widespread disease and death. However, the commercial Tobacco and Nicotine Industry continues to promote, market, and sell tobacco and nicotine products to protect and expand profit.

Building love and justice, ending harms: a framework for abolishing the tobacco and nicotine industry.

The tobacco and nicotine industry, embedded in colonial exploitation and racialised harm, remains a leading cause of preventable disease, death, and intergenerational trauma.

In this commentary, we outline why the eradication of the tobacco industry is necessary, urgent and realistic.
