Madness: Race and Insanity in a Jim Crow Asylum

This is the second book I've read this year that touches on the history of institutionalization and de-institutionalization and I find both so fascinating and sad. Hylton approaches the topic with such empathy and grace, but also the righteous anger that is so needed. A must read for all who are concerned with mental health, race, and the ways in which they interact.
