enforced sterilization

Read a random definition: seck

A quick definition of enforced sterilization:

Enforced sterilization is when a group of people are made to have a surgery that stops them from having babies. This is done as part of a plan to harm that group of people. It is a very serious crime that is against the law in many countries.

A more thorough explanation:

Enforced sterilization, also known as compulsory sterilization, is when a group of people is forcibly sterilized as part of a systematic attack against that group. Sterilization is a medical procedure that makes it impossible for a person to have children. When it is done without a person's consent, it is a violation of their human rights.

  • In the 20th century, several countries, including the United States, Canada, and Sweden, had policies of enforced sterilization aimed at certain groups of people, such as those with disabilities, Indigenous peoples, and people of color.
  • During the Holocaust, the Nazi regime forcibly sterilized thousands of Jewish people and other groups they deemed "undesirable."

These examples illustrate how enforced sterilization has been used as a tool of oppression and genocide throughout history. It is a violation of human rights and a crime against humanity.
