Eugenics, tainted by its dark history, is often associated with forced sterilization, Nazi atrocities, and attempts to engineer a "better" human race. It devalued the lives of the disabled, lower classes, and nonwhite populations, encourading the belief that the lives of the disabled, the lower classes, the nonwhite were somehow worthless. It even suggests that they should be exterminated for the sake of the human gene pool. While we might think it's a thing of the past, the reality is more complex. In the 21st century, eugenics takes on new forms, presenting a surprising and troubling narrative.
