We Warned Them: Freedom Village

How Do You Become Institutionalized?


Listen Later

Margaret, Maggie, and Boy Wonder travel upstate to interview young survivors of Freedom Village who report on its final years of operation. Patterns of abuse and coercive behavioral modification provide a platform to understand institutionalization. The survivors reveal their individual experiences with violence, racism, medical neglect, and suicidal feelings in the treatment center.
