The entertaining promoter of vast mushroom doses has apparently succumbed to the novel coronavirus. Text copied and pasted from SF Psych Society FB page: Quote:Here at the SF Psychedelic Society our hearts are heavy. Sadly, the psychedelic community has lost Kilindi Iyi to the Corona virus. 😢 He was here in the Bay Area in February and he taught our community so much. So mush love to his family. ❤️

Rest in Power, Kilindi Iyi. Today Detroit lost a local legend to the coronavirus, I am still in shock of the news and can’t believe how close to home this is striking. Kilindi was world famous for his talks on super large doses of visionary mushrooms and was a prolific advocate for the exploration of consciousness.
⠀
He was one of the most prominent figures in the psychedelic community, locally and globally, and was passionate about bringing African and indigenous voices to a space where minorities are often underrepresented. He was known for speaking of excursions into the hyper-dimensional and inter-dimensional realms of inner space and will always be remembered for his unmatched contributions to the collective psyche.

am very saddened to hear this news..
i met Kilindi Iyi when he came to a Dreamtime Invasion talk i did in Hackney, London in 2013, and we conversed a bit and ongoing after that..he had a lot of great knowledge on African entheogens, not just mushrooms, was a figurehead for the representation and empowerment of African Americans in the US psychedelic world (where it can be argued they had been slightly unconsciously marginalised by the 'scene' ), and was a really inspiring and friendly fellow..
may your wealth of knowledge and warm spirit carry you through to the next levels Kilindi 🙏

Such a nice guy. And amazing bravery to push the limits the way he did. He will be missed.

Chocobeastie. I read about an occasion where you and Iyi and others met up in Mexico to eat mushrooms together.
