Eugenics in High School History: Failure to Confront the Past

Eugenics: The Progressive Movement’s Forgotten Ambition
The Independent Review · Summer 2020
The history of eugenics and scientific racism is grossly absent from America’s high-school history textbooks. Is the kinship of these discredited movements with Progressivism too close for comfort?

The latest issue of The Independent Review also features articles on the welfare state, public pensions, privatization of government assets, and numerous exclusive reviews of important new books.

Full issues of The Independent Review are available in downloadable eBook format (PDF, EPUB, and MOBI) for just $2.99, or print for $12.00.
