## Resource

A wild ride through the rise, fall, and rebirth of MDMA, told through the lens of Michael Clegg — a Catholic priest turned psychedelic pioneer — and the scientists pushing for its therapeutic future. Meet Rick Doblin, founder of MAPS, who’s spent decades fighting to legalize psychedelics for healing. The documentary “Prophet of Ecstasy” traces this explosive cultural and scientific journey, from underground rave scenes to cutting-edge research, and was screened with Doblin in attendance for a Q&A.
