[00:00:00]What was eugenics?

[00:00:02]And why did it become one of the darkest ideas of the 20th century?

[00:00:06]Eugenics was the belief that society could be improved by controlling who was allowed to reproduce.

[00:00:13]Supporters believed intelligent, [music] healthy, and superior people should have more children, while the weak should have fewer.

[00:00:20]At first, some people called it scientific progress.

[00:00:24]But over time, the idea became terrifying.

[00:00:28]Governments began deciding which lives were valuable and which were [music] not.

[00:00:34]Forced sterilizations, racial discrimination, human experiments, even Nazi Germany used eugenic ideas to justify horrific crimes. [music] Because once a society starts believing that some humans are biologically better than others, human [music] dignity begins to disappear.

[00:00:54]And history showed how quickly science can become dangerous when power decides what a perfect human should be.
