Death Panel 456 Re-Air Abolish Managed Care

Abolish Managed Care

Beatrice, Artie and Jules discuss the mask ban passed in Nassau County last week, the latest in a dramatic rise in legislation criminalizing face masks and targeting the Palestine solidarity movement. We look at what happened in the overtly hostile public hearing over the ban, the history of the New York statute that ban proponents want back, and how the threat of mask bans goes far beyond public health: mask bans embolden racist policing; they’re anti-trans; and they target the whole of the left.

Beatrice speaks with Sasha Warren about the lessons we can take from the history of anti-psychiatry movements, and other movements aligned against earlier forms of asylums and mental hospitals, with a particular focus on two groups active in the 1960s and 1970s: Institutional Psychotherapy in France and Democratic Psychiatry in Italy.

Beatrice speaks with Victoria Law about how prisons and jails have acted as vectors of covid transmission throughout the pandemic, the experiences of people on the inside from early in the pandemic through fights happening now over long covid in incarcerated people, and why it’s still not too late to bring back a common demand from 2020: to free them all for public health.
