Fit to Be Tied: Sterilization and Reproductive Rights in America, 1950-1980 Paperback - 2011
by Rebecca M. Kluchin
From the jacket flap
Fit to Be Tied provides a history of sterilization and what would prove to become, at once, socially divisive and a popular form of birth control. Rebecca M. Kluchin examines the evolution of forced sterilization of poor women, especially women of color, in the second half of the century and contrasts it with demands for contraceptive sterilization made by white women and men. She chronicles public acceptance during an era of reproductive and sexual freedom, and the subsequent replacement of the eugenics movement with "neo-eugenic" standards that continued to influence American medical practice, family planning, public policy, and popular sentiment.
