Abstract (type = abstract)
This Capstone project aims to investigate the barbaric sterilization laws that were practiced in America during the nineteenth and twentieth centuries by focusing on the Eugenics movement, ideals of the time period, the terrible sterilization practices, the victims, and their right for reparations. Many citizens of this country may not be aware that such laws ever existed and it is time to depict the truth about them. The topic of reparations can be applied to many different minority groups as well and it is important to understand that reparations should not be limited to a sum of money given to victims or a next of kin. I believe the topic of inclusion of all citizens, regardless of gender, race, social status, or mental capabilities, will always be a very current issue. Through electronic journal articles, books, and an interview with Belle Boggs, a writer and professor in the MFA program at North Carolina State University, I have compiled extensive information on the topic at hand. Through my experiences as a freelance journalism writer and editor, I have presented my findings as a news editorial examination.
