Today,
the NY Times published an article captioned “In Brazil, Some Inmates Get
Therapy With Hallucinogenic Tea.”
The
article is here: http://www.nytimes.com/2015/03/29/world/americas/a-hallucinogenic-tea-time-for-some-brazilian-prisoners.html
The
article discusses use of a ritual hallucinogenic tea and meditation as a
treatment for inmates. It’s
fascinating. There is no chance at all
that anything this progressive would happen here (very few programs that are
empathetic to the plights of inmates proceed in the US). But it is hopeful that other countries – more
evolved in the care of treatment and inmates – are pursuing genuine means for
rehabilitation.
