See the case of Rick Ross, the LA coke dealer with a CIA alliance. The fact is the CIA were using both Central Americans (mainly Nicaraguans) and black LA gangs to sell coke, plowing the profits back into the CIA's war against the Contras.
CIA also trafficked in heroin in the '60s and '70s (See "The Politics of Heroin in Southeast Asia" by Alfred W. McCoy).
