The Church of the Eagle and the Condor
The Church of the Eagle and the Condor is a spiritual community based in Arizona. We are currently involved in a lawsuit with the federal government which started after our sacrament Ayahuasca was confiscated and destroyed by U.S. Customs and Border Patrol. We started this case three years ago and have been in a lengthy process with the government since that time. Chacruna has also been directly involved with our attempts to access related government documents through the Freedom of information Act.
