#120 | Sacred Peyote: A Portal to Reciprocity & indigenous Huichol Art & Heritage | Susana Valadez

Susana Valadez is a UCLA anthropologist and the founder and
director of 'The Huichol Center for Cultural Survival and
Traditional Arts' in Mexico. This non-profit altruistic
organization was established to support the endangered Wixárika
(also called Huichol) indigenous tribe, as members of this
ancient culture have been forced to transition into contemporary
society, and adapt to the realities and challenges of the modern
world. During the last +4 decades, Susana, a Nobel Peace Prize
nominee, has aided and collaborated with the Wixárika people to
spearhead numerous strategies to collectively bolster their odds
for cultural survival.
