Sasha Sisko is a non-binary author, a student of ethnopharmacology, integration coach, and an advocate for social justice. Sasha advocates for a focus on indigenous communities, environmental justice, marginalized populations and communities that focus on recovery from addiction. In recent years, Sasha has been working on a book called Graced By Nature, a work that focuses on the history of psychedelics, psychedelic research, religious freedom and traditional indigenous use, as well as the modern psychotherapeutic use of psychedelics. Today we talk about the legal history of psychedelics in the US from prohibition in the 60s and 70s through to the ayahuasca churches of today.
