About this event:

Invented by psychologist Henry Herbert Goddard in 1912, the name Kallikak is derived from the Greek words kallos (good) and kakos (bad). Goddard believed that nature and heredity are unalterable forces leading to feeble-mindedness and degeneracy, which he illustrated from case studies with "Deborah Kallikak," a woman at his institution for the feeble-minded. Incredibly, as revealed in detail for the first time in Good Blood, Bad Blood, Goddard had it all wrong. Using new source material, Good Blood, Bad Blood retells the story of Deborah in its entirety. This is a compelling story that is vital to under-standing both this specific American tragedy and the history of efforts to manipulate the human population.
