Weekend Watching: Eugenics in America
Submitted by legalizeliberty on Sun, 11/07/2010 - 12:33in
Edwin Black discussed his book War Against the Weak: Eugenics and America's Campaign to Create a Master Race, published by Four Walls Eight Windows. The book discusses a large-scale eugenics movement that began in the U.S. in 1904 and that was championed by the nation's medical, political, and religious elite. Eugenics sought to eliminate social "undesirables" and was eventually copied by the Third Reich.

I know this is a long over 1 hour long video {so weekend is the best time to post it}...adds another perspective to the subject.
Until today I never heard about this book and the author...every day learning something new.
Thanks for the bump.

In the first hour, investigative reporter Russ Baker commented on George W. Bush's new book, Decision Points.
And never forget, “Humans, despite our artistic pretensions, our sophistication and many accomplishments, owe the fact of our existence to a six-inch layer of topsoil and the fact that it rains.”
Thanks!
Thanks for the link.
I love digging into obscure dark parts of history that our overlords want hidden from our prying eyes...
a few years back when I lived in several European countries I was amazed at the vast number of alternative history books many written by American expats.
I just wonder how many American sheeple who for voted for Pelosi and other dark hearted ones know the real history of eugenics e.t.c.
