Privilege check: Did you know that the forced sterilization of disabled people is still occurring in the United States?

A new @nwlc report shines light on the dark reality of modern day eugenics.
“Forced sterilization laws are not an aberration—they are part of a larger, horrifying system that prevents disabled people from making basic decisions about their lives, their families, and their futures,” says Ma’ayan Anafi, author of the report.

The report reveals:

🚨 31 states + DC have laws explicitly allowing the forced sterilization of disabled people (the most recent were passed in 2019 in Iowa and Nevada)
🚨 17 states allow forced sterilizations on disabled children (only 3 states explicitly prohibit this)
