In this episode of For the Love of History, we dive into the dark and little-known history of the American Plan—a government-led campaign that led to the wrongful arrest, forced medical exams, and sterilization of thousands of women under the guise of “public health.”
Follow the story of Nina McCall, an 18-year-old girl caught in this web of injustice, and discover how race, class, and gender shaped who got targeted—and who fought back.
