22m · PublishedIn this episode, we will discuss the use of psychotropic drugs as a means of controlling and harming the incarcerated population. This legal violence is termed "pharmaceutical violence." There are many ways mental health professionals within prison settings twist treatment plans in order to better control or further oppress those who are incarcerated. It is important to recognize the harms mental health treatment can do to people who are incarcerated. While many people continue to advocate for increased mental health services, these may harm the people they are aiming to help.

18m · PublishedIn this episode, we will be discussing the commonly believed notion that the deinstitutionalization of mental health facilities led to the rise of mental illnesses within the homeless population and the prison system. We will disprove this myth by offering alternative explanations for the prevalence of mental illness among people who are homeless or incarcerated and view the problem as a socio-economic and political issue rather than an individual one.
