<p>In Jackson, Mississippi, in 2012, a construction crew found human remains in the backyard of Mississippi&rsquo;s biggest hospital. They turned out to be from a long-forgotten chapter of the state&rsquo;s past&ndash;the old &ldquo;lunatic asylum.&rdquo; The asylum closed its doors in 1935 and that building, along with its cemetery where 7,000 former patients had been buried, was abandoned. Reporter Larrison Campbell travels to Jackson, where a show by the artist Noah Saterstrom has brought national attention to the asylum&rsquo;s history. And she tries to understand just how 7,000 people could be forgotten.</p><p>See <a href="https://omnystudio.com/listener">omnystudio.com/listener</a> for privacy information.</p>
