The Eugenics Crusade
By the end of the 1070's 60,000 people had been sterilized against their will.
This video Misrepresents the details from the so called holocaust, most people in the camps died from starvation and disease.
In 1932 the eugenics committee convened at Congress However most in the scientific community declined to attend.
Muller did attend to give a 10 minute speech saying eugenics had NO scientific basis for the conclusion that socially lower classes have genetically inferior intellectual equipment.
Society NOT the individual which is the real criminal and which stands to be judged.
THE EUGENICS CRUSADE tells the story of the unlikely—
and largely unknown—project to breed a better American race,
tracing the rise of a movement that turned a scientific theory of heredity into a powerful instrument of social control.
Populated by figures both celebrated and obscure, it is an often revelatory portrait of an America at once strange and eerily familiar.
For decades, the United States was a world leader in applying eugenics to its own population.
Politicians passed laws to prevent entire races from entering the country, universities taught their students the benefits of selective human breeding, and activists were hailed as heroes for calling for the sterilization of the poor, sick, and mentally ill.
This is the story of the campaign to breed a better American race,
tracing the rise of this movement that turned the fledgling science of heredity into a powerful instrument of social control.
The science, or more aptly described as the “religion” of eugenics is alive and thriving today, They are using technology to try and fulfill Galton's dream of taking charge of our own evolution to manipulate embryos.
In the early 20th century,
a movement known as Eugenics convinced politicians and doctors that the best way to improve humanity was to stop undesirables from having children.
To help accomplish this goal, thousands of women were sterilized against their will.
In this episode we are going to tell you how this happened, and why it was completely legal.

the 1927 United States Supreme Court case that endorsed state laws mandating the eugenic sterilization of "feebleminded" and "socially inadequate" people in state institutions.

The Ideology of Eugenics
Eugenics, meaning ‘good genes’, was a movement that hoped to improve the genetic health of humanity by promoting the breeding of good or desirable people while limiting or preventing that of undesirables.
It is a scientific fact that genes can influence physical health and that certain conditions can be passed between parent and child. However, genetics was still in its infancy when eugenics emerged, and many false beliefs became embedded in the movement. Behavioral genetics, a field coined by Francis Galton in the 1880s, believed that a range of behaviors including criminality and alcoholism were also genetic, and this became accepted wisdom among eugenicists. A number of other negative traits, such as mental health issues, were also attributed to bad genes.
Galton was actually a cousin of Charles Darwin and the eugenicists were quick to apply Darwin’s evolutionary theory and survival of the fittest idea to humanity. Eugenicists believed that society should ‘weed out’ the sick, ill, poor, and those deemed ‘inferior’ and try to ensure only those with good genes reproduced.
Inevitably, eugenics became deeply associated with racism. From the outset, Galton and early eugenicists assumed the innate superiority of Northern Europeans.
Those of Nordic, Germanic, or Anlgo-Saxon heritage were believed to be genetically superior in terms of intelligence, morality, and physical prowess, with other races spread out on a scale far below them.
It followed that breeding between the superior races and the inferior ones was to be avoided,
that superior races should be encouraged to breed among themselves as much as possible, and that the inferior races have their numbers limited as much as possible.
Not all eugenics was race-based. Black eugenicists rejected the racist conclusion of some eugenicists but still targeted the physically, mentally, and morally unfit within the Black community.
This included Thomas Wyatt Turner,
the first Black American to receive a PHd, and W. E. B. Du Bois, one of the greatest intellectuals of his day, who famously argued that, quote,
“only fit blacks should procreate to eradicate the race's heritage of moral iniquity.”

Within two years almost 1,400,000 copies were sold, and by 1923 a total of 40 different intelligence tests were available nationally
