Timothy Leary - American Psychologist & Psychedelics Activist
At Harvard university he conducted controversial experiments where he partook in psychedelic trips with students. Considered by many to be the father of the 1960s US psychedelics movement. Some may argue that his methods were too extreme and that he pushed psychedelics in too aggressive of a fashion. Eventually he was ostracized by public opinion influenced by the failed War on Drugs and antagonization of his anti-establishment views. Ultimately, his message was to advocate for the therapeutic use of psychedelics and cautioned listeners to think for themselves, to wake up from their conventions, and question authority.
