This three-hour in-person class is an honest, grounded exploration of one of the most important conversations happening in herbalism today. We'll look at what cultural appropriation actually means in a plant medicine context who gets credit, who profits, and who gets erased and trace real stories like echinacea's journey from Lakota Oglala Sioux tradition to European supplement shelves.
Together we'll examine how white supremacy operates through erasure in herbal spaces, reconnect with our own ancestral plant traditions, and explore the ethics of wildcrafting and plant sourcing. Students leave with a practical framework they can apply to their practice right away.
This class is for herbalists at every level who want to do this work with more honesty, more care, and deeper roots.
Core themes: Respect · Acknowledging · Reparation · Self-Introspection
