Eugenics and Education in America

"Education in America was designed to organize, classify, and sort students according to a definition of ability and human worth provided by a racialized scientism known as eugenics - an ideology whose ultimate goal was the establishment of a superior White race. In exposing and addressing eugenics' place in our educational system, this book provides a groundbreaking to, and exceptional correction of, the history of curriculum in America."--Jacket.
