DESCRIPTION:An exploration and discussion of the history, treatment, and politics of 
 "madness" that radical folks face when dealing with their mental health. 
 We'll address topics like: How has madness been defined? Does mental 
 illness exist? How can we navigate the system if we need to? What 
 alternatives are available? How can we learn effective self-care? What is 
 the history of the emotional extremes commonly labeled as mental illness? 
 What can we do in times of crisis? How can we apply principles of harm 
 reduction? What are the politics behind mental health treatment in this 
 country? How are experiences of mental health/mental illness affected by 
 race, class, gender, and sexual orientation? How does trauma, both 
 psychological and physical, affect our mental health?  The Bay Area Radical 
 Mental Health Collective is a group of people who have all struggled with 
 mental health problems either in their own lives or as allies to friends 
 and family. We are trying to open discussion about alternatives, provide 
 resources, and get dialogue going about mental health in the radical 
 community.    http://www.barringtoncollective.org\n
