While growing up, Author Bob Darby often heard about the Milledgeville, Georgia, "insane asylum" where anyone who acted oddly could be put away simply for being different. Such behavior might include the expression of such views as those critical of religion, politics, or Jim Crow Segregation. Later in the 1960s, effective medications were introduced that successfully brought about remission from serious mental illnesses like schizophrenia. All over the country, many severely mentally ill people were discharged from mental hospitals resulting in a very large group of the homeless mentally ill who had no where to go but the streets. The 1960s were a decade of rapid change for the U.S. including the Civil Rights Movement that challenged Jim Crow Segregation while America committed itself to the Vietnam War. This collection of essays deals with America's current political controversies. Particular attention is given to the U.S. Army School of Americas where Latin American soldiers support U.S. Corporate interests by practicing torture and genocide.
