Topic: Ruth Ellis Center

1 chapters across the catalog

The Ruth Ellis Center in Highland Park, Michigan, is characterized as a laboratory for medical experiments on traumatized, predominantly Black youth. Doctors at the center provide puberty blockers and cross-sex hormones to homeless and foster children, promising that transition will solve their psychological problems. The segment frames this as a postmodern iteration of "Dr. Frankenstein," where elite doctors manufacture a new "oppressed" class through biological intervention.
