| − | Sadly, ideas of racial superiority and eugenics did not die with Hitler’s regime. [[David Duke]], America’s infamous anti-black and anti-Jew racist, developed his views from reading the eugenicist writings of Galton, [[H.G. Wells]], Sir Arthur Keith and others, as well as the early writings of modern sociobiologists such as Harvard’s E.O.

| | In '''[[Nazi Germany]]''', abortion resulted in the death penalty for [[Aryan]] women, but was forced upon other "inferior" members of society. Abortion played a prominent part in Nazi [[eugenics]], "cleansing" those seen as undesirable. The Nazis believed the woman's body belonged to the state, and they would decide whether a pregnancy would be carried out. Jews, Gypsies, and other groups would be killed if they did not carry out a state-mandated abortion. | | In '''[[Nazi Germany]]''', abortion resulted in the death penalty for [[Aryan]] women, but was forced upon other "inferior" members of society.
