Episode 36 | Cancelling Eugenics
America’s cancel culture is cancelling historical figures who are steeped in racism & eugenics. But when will we cancel eugenics?
Episode Synopsis:
A recent post by Feminists Choosing Life of NY asks, when will our cancel culture cancel eugenics? We discuss the origins and history of eugenics, how it operates in the world today, its connection to abortion, and how it is being defended by those who would consider themselves “woke.” This episode proves that we can’t end eugenics without ending abortion.
