EXPIRES AFTER 48-Hrs
EMBRACING ANTI-OPPRESSION & PSYCHEDELIC JUSTICE FOR COLLECTIVE LIBERATION
with Oriana Mayorga, Lunademar Suescún, Sabrina Frometa & Kevin Garcia
While the visible people and organizations in the psychedelic movement tend to be white bodied, many active BIPOC in the field know that, too often, our work and contributions are what these colonizers build and profit off.
What does anti-oppression work in the psychedelic movement look like? In what ways can we continue to center justice in psychedelia? How do we (BIPOC) hold onto our contributions without experiencing erasure? Tune into this immersive panel and join the conversation.
