Does That Make Me Crazy

Syrus Marcus Ware

Does That Make Me Crazy moves across time to tell a story of intergenerational experiences of Madness, love and activism in a mixed race family over four decades. Set against the backdrop of Black liberation movements in the 1960s, 1990s and mid 2010s, Does That Make Me Crazy makes important links between Black liberation and Mad justice.
