The staff of Lucid News is deeply saddened by the death on Sunday of our friend and colleague Ken Jordan. In addition to being our Editorial Director and co-founder of Lucid News, Ken was a true pioneer and leader in the psychedelic movement and a dear friend to many of us. He had a clear vision of the future of psychedelic communities and dedicated his life to the transformative power of psychedelics for worldwide healing.

He passionately believed in the importance of accurate and accessible information about psychedelics and the value of inclusive global psychedelic community organizing. We will continue the mission of Lucid News in his honor with the spirit and ceaseless dedication that Ken brought to this work. With love and in psychedelic alliance.
