Among other things, Eye is the former wife of a former drug addict whose recovery process has included this sacred root of the Central African rainforest shrub, T. Iboga.
She has never tried cocaine or heroin. She has not ingested ibogaine. She has experienced visions related to her husband's journeys in the dream territory of the jungle. (More on that mystic another time and place.)
She is a contributing poet to the way the Freedom Root collective has named its mission. But be advised: her opinions and other ego-drivel are the sole articulation of her soul, and in no way should be construed as representative of the self-help harm reduction activists collective bearing the same moniker.
She sometimes has a crush on Dana Beal. But try not to hold that against her.
She has a grown stepson who lost his mother to drugs when he was only seven years old. As a result of this tragedy, she morally objects to policies and practices that block access to one of the more effective medical supports addicts like his parents might have benefited from earlier in the trajectory of their diseases.
This blogic diary will reflect activities and contemplations related to that stance.
By trade, she is an historian, a social scientist, and a sometimes-professora of gender and ethnic studies. Her teaching fields include Modern U.S., American Women, the History of Sexuality, and Native North America. She took her outside field of study in the History of Africa.
