No Money for Forced Sterilization Victims in NC - North Carolina lawmakers said last Wednesday the state couldn't afford to pay out $50,000 to victims of forced sterilizations. Between 1929 and 1974, North Carolina forcibly sterilized about 7,600 people whom the state deemed "feeble-minded," many of which were poor Black women.
