FREE: Insanity Inside Out

The listing, Insanity Inside Out has ended.

Kenneth Donaldson's 15 yr struggle to procure his release from an asylum, to survive the drugs, cruelty, incompetence, bigotry, indifference, and lies, to clear his name, and to see the federal government assert the basic constitutional right - all this stands as a testament to Donaldson's tenacity, idealism, and courage. His account yanks the cover from one of society's storage bins, turns out the inside of a system we wish to forget, reveals the craziness which wields the hypodermic and the rubber stamp.
There is blood and horror and suicide and laughter. And all the while there is Donaldson- hiding incessant scribbling inside his shirt or between the pages of a magazine as he is shunted from one level of hell to another. Amidst the decay and the waste and the evil, he is keeping a diary and writing legal writs to be smuggled out, blowing on an ember which the Supreme Court has now raised as a beacon of hope.
