I told him that this sounded a lot like Eugenics. I told him about a little of the history mentioned above here. He listened patiently then asked me why I just dismissed Eugenics as bad. He told me that animal husbandry was crude and that genetics was a powerful tool to deliver the hope that the Eugenics movement poorly attempted. I told him that this was scary conversation and he assured me that whether I liked it or not this is what is being worked on by his colleges.
This is someone who I would call "a good person" and very smart. We better wake up fast because if this is true and a lot of the big brains in labs out there are imagining the human re-engineering they can do then we are truly facing a brave new world in ways that the Eugenics folks could not have imagined.

Thank you for your work to education people about the American Eugenics movement. As a mom of a person with a disability, I am keenly aware that the ideas of that movement are still alive today.
For this reason, I am troubled by the article statement that the movement has been thoroughly discredited. Forced sterilization is still practiced today, especially among women in prison. It is imperative we educate people about this deeply dangerous undercurrent in our society. Thank you!

The reason why most people aren't taught about the American eugenics movement as part of U.
In fact, they were instrumental in both funding and organizing the movement. Secondly, as will be made apparent upon reading the aforementioned paper, this secret society isn't just an over-glorified fraternity as some would have you believe. Is it any wonder that American students aren't taught much about the American eugenics movement?
We began using Bozzone's "Biology for the Informed Citizen" in our Biology course for non-majors at Lander University this fall which is excellent at presenting biology in a societal context.
They have a "spotlight" type section in the genetic engineering chapter about the Eugenics Movement. I agree with many of the points you raise. I wonder also how aware most high school teachers are of the eugenics movement. If they don't have a strong foundation in the history, and the material is not in the textbook, then they may not even realize that the topic is being omitted.
This is an issue my students and I are eager to look into. Laura - I have a couple of thoughts on why the history of eugenics is not more widely taught. I did learn about it a little bit in high school history class, so I knew there was such a thing, but we didn't really go beyond that.
One reason why this history isn't taught more may be a perception on the part of educators, school boards, etc. Now, that's arguable, but if one is inclined to think that eugenics was kind of a fringe movement, then one would make the choice to set it aside in favor of emphasizing more "important" themes. Another reason I would offer is that the history of eugenics has a wider connection to themes of race and class in the United States and those themes are uncomfortable for a lot of people to explore.
It's easy to look at Nazi Germany and say that eugenics and ideas affiliated with it only happen in places that are not "like us". But eugenics did happen in the US and part of its appeal was its seemingly "scientific" solution to social problems that many believed were rooted in inherent and immutable characteristics.
So you have people pointing to studies like that of the Jukes family in upstate New York and arguing that such studies demonstrate that poverty, criminality, etc. Eugenics is also connected to scientific racism. There's still argument over how influential these books were, but they are evidence for how eugenics fits into a larger context. I think that it is outrageous that Americans are not taught about the Movement.
The sorry history regarding eugenics in this country should be taught not only in history classes but in classes that deal with civil rights. An even more glaring omission, in my opinion, is the paucity of references to the issue in medical ethics texts. I am in the process of wring such a text and I certainly will include a discussion of the relevant issues.
Do you have any thoughts on why the history of the eugenics movement is not more widely taught? DId you learn about it in high school, for example? There's a pretty extensive literature on eugenics in the history of science. One really good book that readers might be interested in is In the Name of Eugenics by Daniel Kevles. Case Study in Behavioral Genetics.
Case Study: "The Perfect 46". Case Study in Genetic Sports Advantage. Case Study in Genetic Non Disclosure. Case Study in Three Parent Embryos. Case Study in Lethal Diseases and Autonomy. Case Study in Personal Genome Services.
When a Case Study is Not Hypothetical. In , John H. Field workers for these organizations soon began tracking families, using the data to establish pedigrees which outlined the inheritance of undesirable traits throughout generations. Many feminist advocates took on the eugenics cause, including Margaret Sanger , founder of Planned Parenthood and one of the most well-known early advocates of birth control.
In , when the constitutionality of these laws were called into question, the Supreme Court upheld state compulsory sterilization laws —a ruling that has yet to be expressly overturned. As a result, between and , more than 64, people were involuntarily sterilized under U. Around this time, eugenicists also lobbied for stricter federal laws, particularly regarding immigration. The Immigration Act of was one result of this work, effectively banning all immigration from Asian countries.
Later, some policymakers felt that a fault of the act was that it did not extend to countries in the Western Hemisphere , allowing undesirable immigrants from Mexico, Central, and South America.
See his comments about the problem of African American descendants below. Laughlin was later compelled by the Special Committee on Immigration and Naturalization to restudy the problem. Read his research here. In the s, the eugenics movement became popular enough to reach the scientific community in Germany. When Adolf Hitler rose to power in the s, he did so with prior knowledge of eugenics and a belief that the German people had become weak because defective genes were running rampant throughout the population.
Later, it was required that German marriage partners be tested for hereditary diseases, and contraception and abortion were restricted for couples. Modeling off of state laws in America, Germany began its own forced sterilization programs—they were specifically inspired by work being done in California, which by had forced more sterilizations than every other state combined. By the mids, more than 5, people a month were undergoing compulsory sterilization in Germany.
Thirty-two states passed eugenic-sterilization laws during the twentieth century, and between sixty and seventy thousand people were sterilized under them. The rhetoric of the movement toned down after the U. The disassociation did not go both ways: Buck v. Bell was cited by the defense at Nuremberg. But the sterilization rate remained high even after the Second World War.
Bell is still on the books and was cited as precedent in court as recently as Forced or coercive sterilizations never entirely went away either. In , the Center for Investigative Reporting revealed that at least a hundred and forty-eight female prisoners in California were sterilized without proper permission between and Last year, a district attorney in Nashville was fired for including sterilization requirements in plea deals.
Many of these works approach the story of American eugenics as though it will be a surprise to the reader, which is probably a safe bet. Of the two other books on Buck v. Bell is little remembered today. This is not how we talk about ourselves. And yet there are passages that sound startlingly familiar. In the debate over the Immigration Act of , which excluded eugenically undesirable races from the U. For example, the Old Testament describes the Amalekites — a supposedly depraved group that God condemned to death.
Concerns about environmental influences that might damage heredity — leading to ill health, early death, insanity, and defective offspring — were formalized in the early s as degeneracy theory. Degeneracy theory maintained a strong scientific following until late in the 19th century. Masturbation, then called onanism, was presented in medical schools as the first biological theory of the cause of degeneracy. Fear of degeneracy through masturbation led Harry Clay Sharp, a prison physician in Jeffersonville, Indiana, to carry out vasectomies on prisoners beginning in The advocacy of Sharp and his medical colleagues, culminated in an Indiana law mandating compulsory sterilization of "degenerates.
By the midth century most scientists believed bad environments caused degenerate heredity. Benedict Morel's work extended the causes of degeneracy to some legitimate agents — including poisoning by mercury, ergot, and other toxic substances in the environment.
The sociologist Richard Dugdale believed that good environments could transform degenerates into worthy citizens within three generations. This position was a backdrop to his very influential study on The Jukes , a degenerate family of paupers and petty criminals in Ulster County, New York.
