Show Notes

The Hogg Foundation for Mental Health is on a mission, not just to catalyze systemic reforms in mental health, but also to use our accumulated knowledge and platform to address some of the world's most vexing problems. In this episode, former Hogg executive director Dr. King Davis, in a wide-ranging discussion, talks about his monumental effort to digitize the archive of patient records of Central State Hospital, historically known as the Central Lunatic Asylum for Colored Insane. He also comments on the present moment, and the deep implications of the policy stagnation that has marked the Age of Obama.
