How can we decolonise psychedelics? Educator and medicine woman Charlotte James and host Mattha Busby discuss the contested history of magic mushrooms, the impact of the west on indigenous communities and the colonisation of Europe. They both recently visited Huautla de Jimenez, the remote southern Mexican town of legendary healer Maria Sabina, as well as the Mecca for the Wixarika people who use peyote as a sacrament, just outside Real de Catorce in central Mexico. Charlotte also speaks about her work with Psychedelic Liberation Training. And much more. If you would like to read more about these topics, check out Mattha's piece for Vice, 'Flesh of the Gods': The Trippy History of Magic Mushrooms, and for Open Democracy on how 'Big business could wipe out Mexico’s sacred psychedelic peyote cactus'.
