WXDU News tonight (7/27) 6:00-7:00 pm

Tonight on WXDU News, we join BackStory with the American History Guys as they explore mental illness in America. The guys talk about the "illness" that was said to cause enslaved people's desire for freedom, the changing role of asylums in American history, the reasons behind the development of diagnostic criteria for mental illness, and a test for your risk of fascist thoughts. You can find more about this episode, and other BackStory episodes at backstoryradio.org/.
