Imagine learning your mother had a sibling. An aunt you’d never met.
A woman who’d hardly spoken a word in her life and been sent away for it.
It’s a story that, unfortunately, was all too common not so long ago.
In some families, there are relatives kept from public view, hidden away in institutions and never acknowledged.
During this hour of All Sides, we’re talking about the relatives who were sent away.
Guests:
- Jennifer Natalya Fink, professor of English and disability studies at Georgetown University
- Lisa Morrison, founder, Integrated Community Solutions, Medina County
