Program Description

Event Details

At the turn of the century, on Long Island and throughout the nation, eugenicists were allowed, unchecked, to conduct experiments on prisoners, psychiatric patients, Coney Island circus performers, Native American reservation members, and more, all in an effort to legitimize a false science.
