Violence: An Interdisciplinary Approach to Causes, Consequences, and Cures (author)
Awards National Research Service Award

Bandy Xenobia Lee is an American psychiatrist whose scholarly work includes the writing of a comprehensive textbook on violence. [2] She is a specialist in public health approaches to violence prevention who consulted with the World Health Organization [3] and initiated reforms at New York's Rikers Island Correctional Facility. [4] She helped draft the United Nations chapter on "Violence Against Children," [5] leads a project group for the World Health Organization's Violence Prevention Alliance, [6] and has contributed to prison reform in the United States and around the world. [7] She taught at Yale School of Medicine and Yale Law School from 2003 through 2020.

In 2017, Lee organized a conference at Yale on the mental health of Donald Trump with the participation of other psychiatrists including Robert Jay Lifton and Judith Lewis Herman. [8] Following the conference, in March 2017, the American Psychiatric Association released a statement reaffirming the Goldwater rule that restricts comments related to the mental health of public figures without their consent or evaluation. [9] Lee characterized the statement as silencing concerns raised by psychiatrists about the Trump presidency. [10]

Lee reconvened the conference the following month, [11] and later in the year edited The Dangerous Case of Donald Trump , a collection of essays warning about the dangers of Trump's mental instability that became a New York Times bestseller. [12] It was reported that White House Chief of Staff John F. Kelly secretly consulted the book as a guide for dealing with Trump [13] [14] Using this book as an "owner's manual," [15] [16] Kelly was able to intervene to block Trump from ordering the use of nuclear weapons. [17] [18]

In 2017 and 2018, Lee met with over fifty U.S. Congress members who considered the 25th Amendment [19] [20] [21] and in 2019 held an interdisciplinary conference at the National Press Club, which discussed impeachment and was broadcast in full by C-SPAN. [22] [23]

In 2020, Yale University failed to renew Lee's voluntary medical faculty position for allegedly breaking the Goldwater rule in her speech regarding Alan Dershowitz and Trump. [24] Lee sued Yale for breach of contract and breach of implied duty of good faith and fair dealing, [25] but the suit was dismissed in August 2022. [26] Lee subsequently filed for an appeal, [27] and on June 20, 2023, the appellate court upheld the previous ruling against her. [28] Lee warned against the silencing of intellectuals and criticized Yale's declaration of "no obligation to academic freedom" in her case. [29] [30]

In August 2022, Mother Jones published an article titled "The Psychiatrist Who Warned Us That Donald Trump Would Unleash Violence Was Absolutely Right." [31] It argues that the events of January 6th are Lee's "vindication." [32]

Early life and education

Bandy Lee was born and raised in the Bronx, New York. She is of Korean descent. Her mother was Inmyung Lee. As a teenager, Lee volunteered in Harlem as a tutor for homeless African-American children. [33] Her grandfather was Geun-Young Lee, a physician who treated patients in need of care after the Korean War, [34] who Lee says inspired her with a belief that practicing medicine also involves social responsibility.

Lee received her M.D. from the Yale University School of Medicine in 1994 and a Master of Divinity (M.Div.) from Yale Divinity School in 1995. [35] Lee completed her medical internship at the Bellevue Hospital Center in New York. During her medical residency at the Massachusetts General Hospital, Lee was designated as the chief resident. She was then a research fellow at Harvard Medical School. [36] Upon completion, she was offered a faculty position at Harvard University but turned it down to return to Yale. [37]

Career

Lee studied the anthropology of violence in East Africa as a fellow of the National Institute of Mental Health [38] and co-authored academic papers on Côte d'Ivoire, Tanzania, and Rwanda. She is a specialist in violence prevention programs in prisons and in the community [35] and worked for several years in maximum security prisons in the United States [33] where she was instrumental in initiating reforms at New York's Rikers Island jail complex. [35] She has consulted with five different U.S. states on prison reform. [35]

Lee was director of research for the Center for the Study of Violence and with Kaveh Khoshnood, founded Yale University's Violence and Health Study Group. [38] She heads a project group of the Violence Prevention Alliance for the World Health Organization [35] that contributes to increasing the evidence base on interventions that work to prevent interpersonal violence in low- and middle-income countries. [39] She helped draft United Nations Secretary-General Kofi Annan's chapter on "Violence Against Children" [40] and is the author of the textbook, Violence: An Interdisciplinary Approach to Causes, Consequences, and Cures. [2]

In April 2017, Lee hosted a meeting at Yale University medical school to discuss the ethics of speaking about the dangers of Donald Trump. [41] The assembled psychiatrists decided they had a "duty to warn". [42] Following the conference, in an interview with Salon in May 2017, Lee stated that Trump suffered from mental impairments and due to his holding the office of president, the issues amount to a "state of emergency" and that "our survival as a species may be at stake", [43] [44] She also discussed her views that link what she sees as increasing inequality in the United States to a deterioration in collective mental health. [44] Later in 2017, she was the editor of The Dangerous Case of Donald Trump , a book of essays alleging that Trump suffers from psychological problems that make him dangerous. [45] After the book's publication, she reported receiving thousands of threatening messages by letter, telephone, and on social media that included death threats. [33]

In December 2017, she met 12 members of the United States Congress (11 Democrats, 1 Republican) to give them her opinion on Trump's psychological dangers, in which she reportedly argued that he was "unraveling". [33] In a letter to the New England Journal of Medicine , Jeffrey Lieberman, past president of the APA, argued that Lee and her co-authors were guilty of a "misguided and dangerous morality". [46] Lee says that Lieberman was instrumental to shutting down what had by that time become "the number one topic of national discussion," [47] at the same time as violating the Goldwater rule himself. [48] [49]

Lee says that when meeting with lawmakers, she was adhering to the American Psychiatric Association's guideline, which precedes the Goldwater rule, and which urges psychiatrists "to serve society by advising and consulting with the executive, legislative, and judiciary branches of the government." [50] In an interview she also said, "whenever the Goldwater rule is mentioned, we should also refer to the Declaration of Geneva, established by the World Medical Association 25 years earlier, which mandates physicians to speak up if there are humanitarian reasons to do so. This Declaration was created in response to the experience of Nazism." [51]

Since that time, two investigative articles have claimed that the APA actions with regard to the Goldwater rule were taken to protect the APA's federal funding. [52] [53] Lieberman was one of the beneficiaries. [52] Lee stated, "Americans had to learn to do without expertise, just as it has with the pandemic, and the results have been equally devastating." [54] She says [55] that mental health experts predicted the mismanagement of a pandemic that exceeded a half-million deaths, shortly following the end of the Trump presidency. [56]

In her Profile of a Nation, [57] [58] published on October 1, 2020, Lee warned of a violent reaction after an election loss, stating, "he is truly someone who would do anything, no matter how terrible, no matter how destructive, to stay in power." [58] Bill Moyers, who interviewed her shortly after the January 6, 2021 Trump-incited U.S. Capitol attack, called her "the least surprised person in the country." [59] He had praised her 2017 book as "profound, illuminating and discomforting." [60] On January 9, 2021, Lee was among World Mental Health Coalition (WMHC) colleagues who called for quick removal of Trump from office, [61] and made recommendations regarding how to encourage his loyal followers to fall away from his influence. [62] At this time, Lee and her colleagues at the WMHC drafted and published the first-ever Declaration of Freedom of the Freedom of Mind in history. [63]

On January 17, 2021, Lee and Jeffrey D. Sachs authored an opinion, One Group Who Knew All Along How Dangerous Trump Was: Mental Health Experts, [64] in which they proposed changes to the Twenty-fifth Amendment to the United States Constitution in order to "address dangerous psychological disorders, and taking steps to reduce the powers of the presidency so that the nation is not vulnerable to the whims of one mentally unbalanced individual", as well as, changes to the restraining standards imposed on members of the American Psychiatric Association in such circumstances. [65]

Termination from Yale University

On January 2, 2020, Richard Painter asked Lee on Twitter about Alan Dershowitz's response to Virginia Giuffre, who sued him for sexual assault by saying that he had a "perfect" sex life. Lee tweeted back, "Alan Dershowitz’s employing the odd use of 'perfect'—not even a synonym—might be dismissed as ordinary influence in most contexts. However, given the severity and spread of 'shared psychosis' among just about all of Donald Trump’s followers, a different scenario is more likely... Which scenario? That he has wholly taken on Trump’s symptoms by contagion. There is even proof: his bravado toward his opponent with a question about his own sex life—in a way that is irrelevant to the actual lawsuit—shows the same grandiosity and delusional-level impunity." [66] [67]

Dershowitz publicly objected to Lee's characterization, writing, "Dr. Bandy Lee has never met me, never examined me, never seen my medical records, and never spoken to anyone close to me. Yet she is prepared to offer a diagnosis of 'psychosis' which she attributes to my being one of President Trump's 'followers.' ...Indeed, Dr. Lee went even further, diagnosing 'the severity and spread of "shared psychosis" among just about all of Donald Trump's followers.' ...She is literally claiming that we are mentally ill and our views should be considered symptoms of our illness, rather than as legitimate ideas." [68] According to Lee, Dershowitz also e-mailed officials at Yale, stating, "This constitutes a serious violation of the ethics rules of the American Psychiatric Association. I am formally asking that association to discipline Dr. Lee." [69]

According to Lee, John Krystal, chair of the psychiatry department at Yale, immediately called her to a meeting. [70] This was in stark contrast to his affirmation of her free speech rights less than two years earlier. [71] She requested an investigation but did not hear back until her termination letter on May 17, 2020. [72] After multiple inquiries, Krystal in a September 4, 2020, letter gave as an explanation for Lee's termination: "your repeated violations of the APA's Goldwater Rule and your inappropriate transfer of the duty to warn from the treatment setting to national politics." [73] It may also have been a response to a letter by Gregory Scholtz, the president of the American Association of University Professors (AAUP), also dated September 4, 2020: "The interest of our Association in the case of Dr. Lee arises from its longstanding commitment to basic tenets of academic freedom and due process.... Under the 1940 Statement, 'College and university teachers are citizens, members of a learned profession, and officers of an educational institution.  When they speak or write as citizens, they should be free from institutional censorship or discipline.... [e]xtramural utterances rarely bear upon the faculty member’s fitness for continuing service.'" [74] In March 2021, Lee sued Yale University over the termination, claiming breach of contract, breach of good faith and wrongful termination. [24] She has also continued to deny that she has broken the Goldwater rule, [75] [76] [77] stating that "danger" is not a diagnosis: "While an in-person interview can be quite useful, it is not strictly required to assess danger." [78]

In response to the news, [79] Laurence Tribe of Harvard Law School tweeted, "This is a disgusting way for any university to act. Dr. Bandy Lee should never have been fired." [80] Jeffrey Sachs of Columbia University stated, "Yale blundered badly by siding with the APA's gag rule rather than the right—indeed responsibility—of its faculty to speak out against a dangerous president." [81] Cornel West, who himself said he was recently denied tenure at Harvard because of his speech, [82] stated, "I wholeheartedly stand in solidarity with Bandy Lee, a brilliant and wonderful sister and professor!" [81] A letter signed by prominent colleagues asked Krystal, "[Since] contributors to this book which Dr. Lee edited include many scholars and international exemplars of psychiatric ethics, we wonder if they too would be terminated were they to be members of your department." [83] Several op-eds on academic freedom and the Goldwater Rule were published by prominent public intellectuals, [84] [85] [86] [87] [88] and at least two petitions were in motion for Lee's reinstatement. [89] Yale University has since come under fire for its stance on academic freedom, [90] [91] [92] while Lee has received other faculty invitations. [93]

Yale University's motion to dismiss Lee's lawsuit was granted on August 30, 2022. [26] According to Lee, after Yale's first motion to dismiss was denied, the judge ruling in her favor "was promptly replaced without cause or explanation." [94] Lee has repeatedly warned that "[t]he muzzling of intellectuals and journalists ... is the first sign of tyranny." [58] On September 15, 2022, the junior federal judge who ruled in Yale University's favor was promoted to appellate court, surpassing senior judges. [95] On June 20, 2023, the same appellate court upheld the previous ruling against Lee. [28] In the process, Yale renounced on court record all obligation to academic freedom, which the Foundation for Individual Rights and Expression stated was "a giant leap backward for faculty rights and a stain on Yale's legacy." [96]

Political abuse of psychiatry, also commonly referred to as punitive psychiatry, is the misuse of psychiatry, including diagnosis, detention, and treatment, for the purposes of obstructing the human rights of individuals and/or groups in a society. In other words, abuse of psychiatry is the deliberate action of having citizens psychiatrically diagnosed who need neither psychiatric restraint nor psychiatric treatment. Psychiatrists have been involved in human rights abuses in states across the world when the definitions of mental disease were expanded to include political disobedience. As scholars have long argued, governmental and medical institutions code menaces to authority as mental diseases during political disturbances. Nowadays, in many countries, political prisoners are sometimes confined and abused in psychiatric hospitals.
