We invite you to join us for an inspiring conversation at the intersection of psychedelics, Black liberation, and collective transformation. This Community Forum will explore how entheogens can support movements for racial justice, community healing, and radical imagination. Grounded in both lived experience and historical insight, our speakers will examine how psychedelics might move beyond personal wellness to become tools of collective empowerment and spiritual revolution. Together, we’ll explore urgent questions such as: How can the “Psychedelic Renaissance” serve the needs of Black and BIPOC communities? What obstacles stand in the way of mass participation and healing? Can entheogenic practices help us reclaim power beyond the political realm, and even beyond the self? What models from history can guide us today? And what does liberation actually look like, within and without? Speakers include Dr. Nicholas Powers, author of Black Psychedelic Revolution and a longtime commentator on race, politics, and psychoanalysis; Sia Henry, lawyer, abolitionist, and senior policy associate at MAPS working at the intersection of criminal justice reform and psychedelic equity; and Soi Kene Witan, Shipibo-trained plant medicine practitioner and educator, exploring Black identity and healing through Indigenous Amazonian traditions.
