THE SUN WON'T COME OUT TOMORROW: The Dark History of American Orphanhood
Explores the real history of orphanhood in the U.S., from the 1800s to the present. Martin reveals the mission of religious indoctrination that was at the core of the first orphanages, the orphan trains that took parentless children out West, and the inherent classism and racism that still underlies the U.S.' approach to child welfare.
