Lecture delivered by Richard B. Gunderman, MD, PhD (Chancellor's Professor of Radiology, Pediatrics, Medical Education, Philosophy, Liberal Arts, Philanthropy, and Medical Humanities and Health Studies, Indiana University) on April 14, 2022. Eugenicists in the United States, building on the scientific breakthroughs of Charles Darwin and others, aimed to protect the human gene pool by preventing so-called “inferior” human beings from reproducing. What they unleashed, however, was a terrible tide of dehumanization and inhumanity, both in Indiana and in Europe. The lessons of their efforts, though difficult to contemplate, must never be forgotten.
