 . It's interesting the contradictions between White's seemingly more liberal stance on race and the conditions of St. Elizabeth's for people of color. Was this simply an accepted sequence of events?-Margie Jones
+. It’s interesting to me to see how this institution seems to put a lot of focus on criticism it received over how they are not enforcing segregation rather than just worrying about how patients are treated and their well-being. -Jake Martin
+. In the beginning section I think it is interesting to see that the author talks about how institutions were pushing to cure patients and then it goes into the fact that some patients stayed with households that were supposed to care for them and its good to state that we heard some of this talk before in some of our previous reading were we learn that these patients were eventually abused by these same caretakers. -Jake Martin
+. Summers briefly mentions the research about the effects of segregation and racism on African- Americans psychological state at this time, out of curiosity, do we ever see this research put to use when dealing with Black patients in asylums during this time?-NG
+. Obviously racism played a huge part in how black patients were treated by the psychiatric community at this time, but it would also be interesting to see how colorism played into the social treatment as well.- NG
+. I think it is interesting that White stressed that no one was immune from mental illness. I think this is interesting because it directly contradicts from our conversations last class of how professionals would be surprised when people showed signs of mental illness after prolonged periods on the front. -Teresa
+. I think it is interesting that Saint Elizabeth’s pushed for a change in lunacy laws that would make it easier for people to voluntarily enter mental health institutions since especially in the past patient rights were not considered important nor were most entries voluntary. I think this shows an important shift in the public’s opinion on mental health aid. -Teresa
+How has whites' idea of being proactive shaped psychiatry today? - Darian James
+While Saint Elizabeth’s said they offered fair employment in what ways were African Americans still limited in their employment there?- Darian James
