Disturbing revelations about a U.S. government program to forcibly sterilize Latina women are now coming out, and the evidence is more damning that previously expected.
The documentary No Más Bebés has compiled a litany of evidence that sheds the light on one of California’s most disturbing secrets, which are reminiscent of Nazi eugenics programs: forced sterilization of Latina women.
مستند بدون بچه های بیشتر با جمع آوری کلی شواهد نوری میبخشد به یکی از نگران کننده ترین اسرار کالیفرنیا، که یادآور برنامه های اصلاح نژادی نازی ها میباشد: عقیم سازی اجباری زنان لاتین
For decades, California was one of several states that performed forced sterilization. For women, it meant having one’s “tubes tied” after giving birth – usually without their consent. It wasn’t just women, though. Men were also given vasectomies without their knowledge. Hardest hit: Spanish-speaking immigrants.
The eugenics program ran from 1909 to 1963. During that time, over 20,000 Californian Latina women were subject to forced sterilization to “control” the population of Latinos in the state.
By the 1970s, that same program had continued but was scaled back just slightly.

برنامه اصلاح نژاد از سال 1909 تا 1963 به اجرا گذاشته شده . در طی آن زمان، بیش از 20،000 تن از زنان لاتین کالیفرنیا تحت عقیم سازی اجباری برای "کنترل" جمعیت لاتین تبار در ایالت قرار گرفتند .
تا سال 1970، همان برنامه ادامه داشته اما تا حدی کمتر شده بود .

Before that gradual phasing out of the program, Latina women – particularly immigrants – in the 1960s had been forcibly sterilized at the Los Angeles County Hospital, without their consent.
قبل از توقف تدریجی این برنامه، زنان لاتین - به خصوص مهاجران - در سالهای 1960 به زور در بیمارستان بخش لس آنجلس عقیم میشدند ، بدون رضایتشان.
The sterilization happened via government instruction to the hospital, after Latina women gave birth at the hospital.Many women were told about the procedure, but only after it was performed on them.
عقیم سازی از طریق دستور ابلاغ شده دولت به بیمارستان انجام میشده ، پس از زایمان زنان لاتین در بیمارستان . بسیاری از زنان در مورد این روش مطلع میشدند، اما تنها پس از اجرای آن بر روی آنها .
As more and more women were told about what was done to them, word began to spread among the Latino community that the government was sterilizing them against their will.
To add insult to injury, many Caucasian Californians saw the government program as “legitimate population control.”
California’s government argued passionately that forced sterilization was “necessary” to keep “welfare” expenditures to a minimum.
But others knew very well that this was a further attempt to stem the growing Mexican American population in California.
The documentary No Más Bebés has now uncovered proof that the real intention was to rid society of “undesirables.”
Eventually a class action lawsuit was filed against the government for the forced sterilization program, in the case of (Madrigal v. Quilligan). Further implicated in the suit, was not just L.A. county doctors as well as the state governments, but also the U.S. federal government itself.
Perhaps the worst part of this infuriating story is that the class action suit – brought by the victims of this racist government program – actually lost the lawsuit when it was brought to court.
شاید بدترین بخشی از این داستان خشم آور این است که دعوی حقوقی - آورده شده توسط قربانیان این برنامه نژادپرستانه دولتی - در واقع طرح دعوی را در دادگاه -باخت . مهر تائید بر شرم آور بودن این سیستم نژادپرستانه کثیف : مترجم
