There may not be a magic pill for curing racism, but scientists have found that dropping lysergic acid diethylamide (LSD), magic mushrooms, ecstasy and other psychedelics can potentially alleviate the trauma caused by racial discrimination.
“Currently, there are no empirically supported treatments specifically for racial trauma,” said Dr. Monnica Williams of the University of Ottawa. “This study shows that psychedelics can be an important avenue for healing.”
She co-authored the trippy research published in the journal Drugs: Education, Prevention and Policy.
To test out the mind-bending theory, Williams and other researchers enlisted 313 people who reported taking a psychedelic drug in the past that they felt helped mitigate “the challenging effects of ethnic discrimination,” per the study. Participants identified as black, Asian, Latino, Native American or Indigenous Canadian, Native Hawaiian and Pacific Islander.
The group completed a survey on their experiences with racial trauma, which included unfair treatment by neighbors, teachers and bosses, false accusations of unethical behavior and physical violence, according to Ohio State News at Ohio State University. Many reported wanting to chastise someone over racist acts but kept quiet instead, per the study.
