Maggiori informazioni sul libro
The book delves into a historical case from 1912 involving a 19-year-old Mexican-American woman in Arizona, who was committed based on questionable assessments of her mental health. Despite being described as happy and rational, her desire to dance was cited as evidence of insanity. The narrative critiques the mental health legal system of the time, highlighting issues of cultural bias and the misuse of authority in determining mental health status. Through this case, the book explores broader themes of justice, race, and societal norms.
