Unfit for Humanity Says Writer in Old Column
Winifred Black laments the “eliminate the unfit” doctrine through a narrator who mocks a physician’s calls to regulate marriage and select only the perfectly healthy. She recalls a surgeon who disassembles people like clocks, reflects on inherited tuberculosis, and questions who would decide who is fit. The piece ends warning that misapplied control could ruin humanity.
