      The Story of MindFreedom Free Live Internet Radio

Since June 2006, MindFreedom Radio Show has supported a nonviolent  
revolution in the mental health system. Leaders, authors, activists,  
mental health professionals, psychiatric survivors and others who are  
actively changing and challenging the current mental health system  
have been featured in live interviews. Listeners have called in from  
around the world.

The weekly show is hosted by psychiatric rights activist David Oaks,  
director of MindFreedom. David also experienced the mental health  
system as a youth when he was institutionalized five times and  
diagnosed "schizophrenic." For a brief bio about David click here.

The Progressive Radio Network produces the show along with several  
others from its studio in New York City. PRN was founded by radio  
personality and health activist leader Gary Null.

If you listen LIVE to the MindFreedom News Hour jot down the toll  
free call-in number for the USA or the special call-in number for  
outside the USA as it is announced during the show. Please keep  
trying, sometimes it takes more than once to get through.

You may e-mail at any time before or during the show to  
radio at mindfreedom.org. E-mail is checked during the show, and your  
comments may be read live on "the air."  Include where you are  
calling from. If pronunciation of your name is not obvious please  
tell us how to do that, or ask us to keep your comment anonymous.

After the distinctive drum beats of the intro music Crazy by Gnarls  
Barkley, on each MindFreedom News Hour you'll hear a brief summary of  
the latest news. Then you'll hear an interview about changing the  
system of care for mental and emotional well being.

Shows have explored the history of the psychiatric survivor movement,  
innovative alternatives to the conventional mental health system, how  
psychiatric survivors and concerned mental health professionals are  
working together on human rights campaigns, and more.

Regular features include updates about breaking stories and  
networking announcements about successful activism and alternatives.

It's your mind! It's your freedom! Free your mind with the  
MindFreedom News Hour hosted by David Oaks.
