Expanding plant based medicine to communities of color to heal intergenerational trauma. Spring Washam joins Plantscendence to talk about her experiences blending plant medicine with Buddhist wisdom, and how they’ve helped her let go of suffering, experience accelerated healing, and move towards liberation. She shares memories of early encounters with plant medicine, including surreal experiences in the “insane circus” and with the soul doctor of ayahuasca, and talks about the process of writing her latest book, The Spirit of Harriet Tubman: Awakening from the Underground. She recounts how the spirit of Harriet Tubman recently led her to Atlanta, where she and Lama Rod Owens are in the process of building a radical church called “the Spirit Underground Church”, a sanctuary for ancestral connection, plant medicine, and collective liberation. She reflects on the work she plans to do there to heal racialized trauma, both in the body and in the land itself, which has historically held immense violence and hatred. The episode also touches on the prevalence of cultural appropriation in the entheogenic world, and the importance of expanding access to plant-based medicine to BIPOC communities.
