- Synopsis
- Focuses on a time in the early 1900's when many people believed that some "races", classes and individuals were superior to others. A new branch of scientific inquiry known as Eugenics was used to justify these prejudices and advocate programs and policies aimed at solving the nation's problems by ridding society of "inferior racial traits".
