NY Times: Willard Suitcase Project Exposes Psychiatric History

by David W. Oaks — last modified 2007-12-10 15:55

The New York Times ran an article about a special exhibit in New York that exposes the history of the psychiatric system in a very personal way. MindFreedom board president Celia Brown lives in New York said, " I'm so proud of the work that Darby Penney and Peter Stastny did. I remember when they were researching the suitcases from WIllard. I also think the NY Times did a great job in reporting and nice quotes from Darby. This is the kind of story that can educate the public on the horrors of the mental health system."
