“American Solidarity 2026: The Urgent Message from History That Could Change Our Future Forever”
The school history books I reviewed omitted any mention of the American eugenics movement and the notable Americans involved in supporting this false science, which promoted the sterilization of people based on poorly conducted studies and surveys. Our challenging history brings us from the eugenics movement of the early 1900s to World War II and the Holocaust. Our history books fail to acknowledge the education Hitler received from the political and social events taking place in America, as well as the significant support he received from our so-called American heroes and political figures of that era. The eugenics-inspired strict immigration laws, along with the widespread antisemitism among politicians, religious leaders, and ordinary Americans, prevented thousands of Jews from escaping to safety, including Anne Frank’s family.
