Image Archive on the American Eugenics Movement
"Eugenics was, quite literally, an effort to breed better human beings." In the early 20th century, eugenics researchers claimed a scientific basis for their work. Politicians in the United States used it to justify racist reproduction and immigration policies. Featuring essays and exhibits taken from materials in the Eugenics Records Office, which was active from 1910 to 1940, this site examines social, political, and ethical issues raised by the ideology of eugenics.
