À propos de ce contenu audio

 In this episode, we explore Madness: Race and Insanity in a Jim Crow Asylum by Antonia Hylton, a powerful investigation into the history of Crownsville Hospital Center — a segregated psychiatric institution in Maryland that became a symbol of how race shaped mental health care in America. We trace the legacy of institutionalization, the roots of racial bias in psychiatry, and the long arc from overcrowded asylums to deinstitutionalization and modern mental health policy. Along the way, we connect this history to broader themes in medicine: early antipsychotics and “chemical lobotomies,” the story of Henrietta Lacks, the evolution of sickle cell care, and how these narratives continue to shape trust, ethics, and equity in healthcare today.
