Of the many consequences advanced by the rise of the eugenics movement in the early twentieth century, North Carolina forcibly sterilized more than 2,000 women and girls in between 1929 and 1950. Karin Zipf dissects a dark episode in North Carolina's eugenics campaign through a study of the State Home and Industrial School in Eagle Springs.
