CCHR’s Human Rights Leadership Award also went to Ms. Beverly Eakman of the United States for her tireless efforts to expose psychiatry’s destructive influence on children. Actress Juliette Lewis, herself outspoken against the psychiatric drugging of children, presented the award on behalf of CCHR.
When Mrs. Eakman settled on a career as a teacher in the public school system, she intended to teach literature and other academic basics. However, she soon found that schools were becoming psychological laboratories, where she was expected to advance psychiatric and psychological-based programs for shaping childrens’ behavior, without parental knowledge or consent. Eakman fought the incursion and turned to the media for assistance, thinking that it would be a fairly simple matter to obtain coverage of what she found. She took documentation of the forced drugging of children, psychological tests which masqueraded as academic tests, and behavior modification programs which were conducted in the classrooms to the top echelons of various newspapers and television news magazines. “While their eyes would get wide as saucers,” Eakman said, “they all in the end said it was too difficult to do that kind of writing. So I decided to do the job myself.”
Eakman first did that job with the publication of her book, Educating For a New World Order. She since formed the National Education Consortium, became a CCHR International Commissioner and published a second book, The Cloning of the American Mind: Eradicating Morality Through Education.
The final award, a special category for performing artists, was presented by the President of CCHR International, Ms. Jan Eastgate, to platinum-award winning musician David Pomerantz for his work on behalf of CCHR. Pomerantz’ song, “Invisible Criminals,” Eastgate said, “is a gripping rendition of the tragedy and destruction accompanying psychiatric practice” and has become the unofficial theme song of CCHR International, she said.
