Feed Hack: Killing Nostalgia Podcast- INJUSTICE: Blackwell's Island Asylum

  • Summary

  • This week, Maggie from Feminist History joins Jasmin as they discuss Blackwell's Lunatic Asylum's history and horrors. 

    Built in the early 19th century, the asylum was initially only meant to house 250 people. It quickly became overcrowded, and lack of funding combined with a host of bad ideas lead to egregious human rights violations.  The stories that made it out of the asylum have served as the inspiration for countless pop culture pieces over the last century, including AHS: Asylum.
