Women and Psychedelics: An Anthology Reclaiming Overlooked Voices, Indigenous Knowledge, and Women’s Roles in Psychedelic History

Women and Psychedelics: Uncovering Invisible Voices is a 336-page anthology examining the overlooked contributions of women who shaped psychedelic history across the Americas. Through essays and interviews, it reclaims erased stories and highlights pioneers, researchers, community leaders, and influential figures such as María Sabina. The collection centers Indigenous knowledge and ancestral plant traditions while exploring healing, birth, death, life cycles, and embodiment. Contributors associated with the Chacruna Institute and Chacruna Latinamérica challenge male-dominated accounts of psychedelic culture and advocate for a more inclusive, ethical, compassionate, and community-driven movement. Edited by Erika Dyck, Patrick Farrell, Beatriz Caiuby Labate, Clancy Cavnar, Ibrahim Gabriell, and Glauber Loures de Assis, with a foreword by Kathleen Harrison, the book was published on March 5, 2024.
