US mass sterilized up until the early 70s for eugenics program

I can't even believe this is real, except it's from ABC News, so it's real.

From the early 1900s to the 1970s, some 65,000 men and women were sterilized in this country, many without their knowledge, as part of a government eugenics program to keep so-called undesirables from reproducing.
Jesus Christ.
