The Unheard Side of Eugenics

This is a podcast about forced sterilization in America. I talk about the history of forced sterilization, who is most impacted by forced sterilization, where it is currently most prominent in America, and how to try and stop it.

A group of women in at a protest against forced sterilization. One woman is holding a poster that says "sterilization of Mothers violates U.N. Charter Art. 25, Sec I & II Vote Mo House Bill 20.
