Welcome

Mission

We are working for the healing and liberation for Black, Indigenous and people of color (BI&POC), 2SLGBTQIA+ people, and all who are oppressed by structural inequality. Through the mind-manifesting aspects of psychedelics, we aim to root out the falsehood of supremacy in ourselves, in our relationships and in our communities; heal from the effects of intersecting systems of oppression; and empower ourselves and others in transforming culture. 

Vision

We have all been conditioned by and have internalized messages from society that are grounded in white supremacy, homophobia, transphobia, settler colonialism, misogyny, ableism. Psychedelics can aid as a catalyst both for healing and for examining our beliefs, as we unlearn and deconstruct these invasive structures both internally and externally.

Who We Are

We are a group of queer, BI&POC-led people working collectively to create spaces for healing and transformation for our communities. Our goal is to facilitate decentralized spaces for community support, and provide information about psychedelics in an approach grounded in social justice. We recognize that some  of the obstacles for our communities in accessing the benefits of psychedelics are 1) insufficient number of BI&POC providers/guides, 2) lack of cultural humility in white providers/guides, 3) microaggressions and overt racism in wider psychedelic spaces, and 4) lack of information about or access to these substances in our communities. These obstacles are situated inside the larger systemic and structural barriers which include ongoing threat to physical safety; the criminalization of Black and brown people in the War on Drugs and terrorism by the carceral state; the disparity of generational wealth for Black and brown people resulting from racial capitalism and leading to barriers in access to material resources, educational opportunities, and healing modalities; and more. In addition to the mission and objectives of our collective we are committed to working on these structural barriers in solidarity with Black Lives Matter, Indigenous Sovereignty and Land Back movements, Disability Justice and 2SLGBTQIA+ liberation movements. We ourselves are imperfect, healing, and in process as we practice embodying ways of being that align with our values.

Please note that PLC does not endorse or engage in illegal activity. We provide community care spaces, education and anti-racism resources to the psychedelic community.
