Jane Mcgonigell Summary

On October 4, 1904, Mary Jane McLeod Bethune launched the Daytona Normal and Industrial Institute for Negro Girls with five students in a four-room cottage that she rented for eleven dollars per month. It was the first grade school for black children in the community. Bethune’s school was near the train tracks and the parents paid fifty cents per week for tuition.

The issue goes further than not treating mental illness but, as well, physical illness. Bridgett Fogel was doing time for traffic violations as well as driving under the influence. She entered prison knowing she was pregnant, she had also reported server cramps and discharge, yet was deemed healthy with no further medical care.
