Professor Nicholas Powers on Psychedelics for the Revolution & Burning Man
b'We are joined by long time Indypendent columnist and Contributing Editor Nicholas Powers. Nick is currently working on his fourth book. It explores the intersection of psychedelics, race and systems of power and it asks where psychedelics would fit in a socialist revolution. Nick is also preparing to leave in a few days for Burning Man, the annual late summer counter-cultural extravaganza held every year in the Nevada desert. The festival draws upwards of 80,000 people. Nick has been attending Burning Man for the past 20 years. He fills all of us non-Berners in on what all the hype is about.'
