The Negro Project: Ep. 3: Eugenics Unmasked: The Dark Origins of 'Better Birth' Policies


In this episode of The Morris Perspective, Connie Morris examines the rise of eugenics in the early 20th century — its ideas, who it targeted, and how those beliefs shaped U.S. policies like forced sterilization and restrictive immigration laws.
The episode also connects American eugenic thought to its global consequences, including Nazi racial policies, and reflects on why understanding this history matters for how science and social beliefs influence public policy and human dignity.
