During the self-directed segment of today’s webinar, we invite you to watch pgEd’s video about the history of the American eugenics movement. We have provided additional options below for those who prefer to read along or for those who have already seen this presentation.

At the end of this segment, we will come back together as a group in the Zoom meeting. If possible, we recommend leaving the Zoom meeting open with your microphone and video off. Please keep your Zoom link handy in case you need to rejoin the meeting.
