Eugenics
Eugenics may seem like ancient history, but it was considered progressive reform at the turn of the 20th century, and women's groups across America prompted the theory and it's related propaganda. This week we're covering Georgia and Atlanta's role in eugenics, the Better Babies contest and forced sterilization of those deemed 'unfit'.
