Inauguration Integration

We are excited to announce a big event in collaboration with the Global Psychedelic Society (GPS)!

Join us as we integrate the inauguration of President Trump and analyze his drug policy, including its implications both domestically and globally.

Our expert panel will feature:

• Ismail Ali, J.D., Director of Policy and Advocacy at MAPS
• Maritza Perez Medina, Director of Federal Affairs at Drug Policy Alliance
• Jason Ortiz, Director of Strategic Initiatives at Last Prisoner Project
• Moderated by Annie Oak Harrison, Editor-in-Chief of Lucid News

The GPS is streaming this panel exclusively to in-person watch party events hosted by local Psychedelic Societies like ours around the world. They will also be providing us with prompts to continue engaging with one another after the panel.

Come learn from world drug policy experts and connect with your local community here in Minneapolis!

We will gather in person to stream a live event with other psychedelic societies around the country to discuss community building and drug policy under the new administration.

This is a sliding scale/pay what you can ticket price between $5-40. This is to cover the overhead for event hosting and paying the panelists who are dedicating their time and expertise to deliver this important information to the broader psychedelic community.

We are partnering with our sister organization, Big Psych, and the Global Psychedelic Society (GPS). 70% of proceeds will go to us and Big Psych, and the other 30% to GPS and the panelists.

Doors will open at 2pm and the livestream will start promptly at 3pm, so please be at the event location before 3pm to minimize interruptions for attendees and ensure we can start on time with the other sites around the country.

Agenda:

2pm - doors open and social

3pm - panel starts

4pm - Q&A with panel

4:30pm - local updates, Q&A and socializing

Please stay home if you are symptomatic with anything (flu, Covid, etc). We will issue refunds if you are unable to attend due to illness.
