Well, it looks like the state budget is going to set $10 million aside to compensate victims of the North Carolina sterilization program. The best recent article on this appeared in Miami Herald yesterday.
As long-time readers of the faculty lounge may recall, we've been following the campaign for compensation for a while and also discussing the complexities of the North Carolina eugenics program, which started in the 1930s and continued well past the time it ended in many other states.
The 2013 Senate bill to provide compensation is here.
California may have to start exploring its own compensation program, but for current day violations of state law (http://articles.latimes.com/2013/jul/14/local/la-me-prison-sterilization-20130714). Ah, "progressives" and their social engineering…
Good, now maybe we will see compensation for the male genital mutilation widely practiced in the WWII military.
