Soft cover. Condition: New. A History and Sociology of the Willowbrook State School introduces the reader to the Willowbrook State School, a place that many feel is the ground zero of the disabilities civil rights movement. The book explores the period before Geraldo Rivera s sensational television exposé in 1972. The early hist…ory of institutions in New York State, New York City, and Staten Island provides a backdrop demonstrate the medicalization of disability, which led to the creation of large-scale institutions. The authors describe in great detail what life was like for the people who lived and worked at Willowbrook and how the institution evolved as it did. First-hand observations and testimonials on life at Willowbrook provide a window into the interpersonal dynamics and interactions of life and work in institutional settings.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Public Hostage, Public Ransom: Ending Institutional America by William Bronston, M.D. is a courageous, eye-opening work born from a lifetime of moral conviction and frontline experience. Drawing directly from his years as a young physician inside the notorious Willowbrook State School, Brons…ton transforms witness into action, and memory into purpose. This is not only a history of institutional abuse, it is a story of personal strength, ethical resistance, and the belief that one committed individual can help ignite systemic change.Bookwrights House is proud to present and champion this defining work by William Bronston, a physician, organizer, and human rights advocate whose life's work bridges medicine, justice, and public policy. From founding the Student Health Organization in the 1960s to organizing health care workers and exposing institutional cruelty, Bronston's journey is inseparable from the creation of this book. Public Hostage, Public Ransom was written not at a distance, but from inside the system by someone who refused to look away when silence was easier.Through unforgettable stories, including the devastating account of a young girl named Lillian, Bronston reveals how institutional America stripped people of identity and dignity, turning lives into commodities. Yet this book is not only about what was broken. It is about what rose in response: parents who organized, advocates who persisted, courts that finally listened, and a vision for care rooted in community, humanity, and justice.For readers who care about civil rights, disability justice, health care reform, or the power of conscience-driven leadership, this book is essential. Available through major online retailers, Public Hostage, Public Ransom is a searing, hopeful call to remember, to reckon and to act. This item is printed on demand. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
