Berkeley Public Health announces plans to rename, repurpose former eugenics fund
Berkeley Public Health announces plans to rename, repurpose former eugenics fund
Oct 26, 2020 In 2018, bioethics professor Osagie Obasogie and other faculty in UC Berkeley’s School of Public Health were surprised to learn that research dollars were available from a fund originally dedicated to the study of eugenics, the now-debunked idea that selective breeding can be used to better the human race. For decades, this ideology was used to justify forced sterilizations and other acts of horrific violence against marginalized people. https://news.berkeley.edu/2020/10/26...eugenics-fund/ |
