Asylums 2: Elizabeth Packard & the Fight for Married Women’s Rights

Broadly Underestimated

Elizabeth Packard has just come out of the fight of her life. She’d spent three years locked in an asylum that she had no power to get out of. Her spiteful husband had committed her and used every legal tool at his disposal to silence her powerful voice. And now, he had taken her children from her.

Elizabeth Packard was a fighter. And there was no way she was going to lay down for this fight for her children and for the rights of married women across the United States.
