Will Hall speaking at INTAR India 2016 Lavasa, India.

free\dom ness – a nother way.. to set/keep 7 bn free.. as the day [aka: not part\ial.. for (blank)’s sake…]
what was really important for me in my own liberation process was an ongoing struggle with what could really be understood as a de colonization of my mind from psychiatry
5 min – when i was in the hospital.. i was really implanted with a lot of beliefs/frameworks/scientific-understandings.. that really came from a position of power not from truth.. and it was really a colonization of my own psyche.. and so i’ve been going thru a de colonization process
sounds like all the institutions.. ie: school.. science of people ness
huge – supposed to’s.. killing us
recent interview on mad in america. . about the connections between transforming the mental health system and struggling with the legacies of colonialism and *oppression.. because i believe that
anywhere we don’t listen to all the voices.. aka: any type/space of public consensus.. there is oppression.. of people/being
each of us is learning how to find our authentic voice
