Thanks for your work on this important commemerative project, Dean Stern. We appreciate you!
UCLA Humanities Dean Alexandra Minna Stern (right) spoke this month at the dedication of a memorial bench at the California Department of State Hospitals – Metropolitan in Norwalk. The bench is dedicated to Californians who were subjected to forced sterilization under the state’s eugenics laws throughout the 20th century. Stern is the founder of the Sterilization and Social Justice Lab, whose research informed the creation of a recent California program to compensate survivors of compulsory sterilization.
