Title: Christmas In Purgatory, Page 78, Bottom
From: Christmas In Purgatory: A Photographic Essay On Mental Retardation
Original caption: "The mentally retarded continue to be the least of the last minority in the United States - the least understood, the most different, the least appreciated. Still it seems probable that, in the words of Voltaire, 'Their time has come,' and, in spite of the ignorance and general indifference of the public, the lot of the retarded is looking upward."
