People of Color Psychedelic Coalition – Zoe Helene

“Most conferences in the United States covering psychedelics lack voices from the black and indigenous communities and our project seeks to bridge that gap. The vast majority of the programming around psychedelics in the larger drug policy reform movement is dominated by those with immense privilege,” Ifetayo explains. “Our mission is to create a series of gatherings in multiple cities to highlight the voices of Black, indigenous, and other people of color, along with other marginalized groups. These gatherings will build the political willpower that psychedelic enthusiasts need to make policy changes like legalization and decriminalization.”
