2023 Welling Lecture: Are Prisons the New Asylums? Decarserating Disability and Other Myths of Deinstitutionalization

Date: Apr 11, 2023 at 7:00pm to 8:00pm
Dr. Ben-Moshe will discuss the genealogy of deinstitutionalization by contesting the hegemonic narrative that prisons are the new asylums, and the social scientific expert knowledge that make it seem so commonsense. By so doing, she will paint a more complex picture of the relation between disability/madness and mass incarceration.
