Eugenics is a concept closely tied to what makes us unwell, and its roots in race medicine amplifies the drivers of racial health inequities, ableism, and white supremacy. Though scientifically flawed, eugenic thinking is present throughout modern-day society and politics. We can see eugenic thinking in policies and protocols throughout the pandemic, through mental health, and much more. In the third episode of our collaboration with the Race & Health podcast, we learn about how eugenics was created, how it has been employed, and how today’s public health world is still riddled with this divisive concept.   Guests include Dr Ayah Nuriddin, who is the Cotsen postdoctoral fellow in the Society Fellows, a lecturer, and in the Council of the Humanities in African American Studies at Princeton University, Angela Saini, an award-winning journalist and author of books, including Superior, the Return of Race Science, and Professor Marius Turda, professor of biomedicine and director of the Centre for Medical Humanities at Oxford Brookes University.
