Edwin Black American Eugenics— From Long island to Auschwitz

the award-winning NY Times bestselling author of War Against the Weak A PRODIGIOUS FEAT OF REPORTING Mother Jones COMPELLING—THE ZEAL OF AN AVENGER Washington Post A Bombshell Library Journal International Human Rights Award, Moral Compass Award, Justice for All Award, Moral Courage Award, Drum Major for Justice Award, DLA Human Rights Awards, a Michigan State Legislative Human Rights Tribute, and the Chicago Public Library’s Carl Sandburg Award Eugenics was America’s shameful, decades–long attempt to create a White, blond, and blue-eyed Master Race to dominate all others. More than 67,000 Americans were forcibly sterilized. This pseudo-scientific campaign of fake medicine and genetics was exported to—and embraced by— Nazi Germany, where it was implemented as a core tenet of the Holocaust. Public Health officials combined with intellectual elites to commit genocide here and abroad. Edwin Black, author of the award-winning bestseller War Against the Weak, is joined by Amy Carney, editor at H-Eugenics and author of Marriage and Fatherhood in the Nazi SS, John Railey, investigative reporter and co-author of the Against their Will series, and eugenics program survivor Elaine Riddick in a special event jointly sponsored by the global academic exchange H-Eugenics.
