80. Your Consent Is Not Required w/ Rob Wipond
More law-abiding Americans today are being involuntarily committed and forcibly treated “for their own good” than at any time in history. Rob Wipond’s book, Your Consent Is Not Required exposes how rising numbers of people from many walks of life are being subjected against their will to surveillance, indefinite detention, and powerful tranquilizing drugs, restraints, seclusion, and electroshock.
Rob Wipond is a freelance journalist and creative nonfiction writer who writes frequently at the interfaces between psychiatry, civil rights, community issues, policing, surveillance and privacy, and social change. His articles have been nominated for seventeen magazine and journalism awards.
