Episode 01 : Mississippi Appendectomy : Montgomery County, MS
We go to the doctor to be treated for our physical maladies. We have a pain or a lump and the doctor knows how to evaluate our symptoms and ease our suffering . When our doctor recommends a course of treatment for a medical condition, we trust that they have our best interest in mind, wanting nothing more than to make us feel better. Sometimes though, they destroy more of you than they fix.

I really as a Black woman really appreciate you covering this. You did such justice by covering this story. Bravo. Love how you tell these stories and give the respect they deserve BRAVO! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 respect
YES!
This broke my heart. I remember it being covered by one of the channels I watch. (DEF not Fox!) and thought it was a few women who were at the wrong place at the right time, the height of Trump giving racists & xenophobes permission to act on their disgusting beliefs. But no. This has been a problem HISTORICALLY. As I was listening as I puttered around the house, I got thrown off by one of the cases, where the couple met, were thought to be very different but ended up happily married only to discover she had been sterilized. I thought that was at the turn of the century but nope. I was ALIVE when that happened. In the 60s. Another case was in 1974. I was 14. And when the woman sued….she LOST!! It was jolting.
❤❤❤
Please elaborate. What justice was done and how? In which way did this producer exhibit respect?
hes making money off of this. such a hero.
A brave decision to produce this well informed documentary about a topic most people would prefer to pretend didn't happen. I salute you sir.
A-men!
Nah Gyles did this story with the same energies he uses for his other work no need to be brave about this subject this isn't the 60s if somebody has a major malfunction with my man Gyles and this story so what f..k them wtf they gonna do u are right it's very well informed documentary .
I second this
Brave? You do realize it's 2022, not 1952?
@@TheKnitch I was referring to moral courage, many TH-camrs seem to stick to populist agendas, presumably because it's more profitable. I wasn't implying that this guy is placing himself in direct physical danger. Neo Nazi's and the right in general focus their vitriol on race and religion, presumably because eliminating the "feeble minded" would severely limit their source of new recruits. Goebbels realised this fact back in the thirties, they do fear intellectuals, which this guy obviously is but I think he's safe enough.
It's sickening to know that this not only happened in my lifetime, but that it happened very, very recently.
Completely agree! It blows my mind that this was going on when my mum was a teenager! I always imagine these types of things happening in the late 1800s and early 1900s. But unfortunately it was all too common in many countries.
@@crumb_of_nopeamine_plz you think it still isnt?
The worst part is that America will claim other countries are doing it while the indigenous population has been wiped out here and they continue to systematically attack people who are genetically African or indigenous. Migrants that come from the south are generally genetically more indigenous than Europeans who have migrated here. When I talk about this even with liberals they act like I'm a conspiracy theorist like 90% of the time. But then they want to go to war with China claiming that it's happening in Xinjiang when the population there is increasing. And any simple Google Map search could show you that there's thousands of mosque in China the biggest Chinese Muslim is Wei btw. But they don't have their own version of the Taliban for America to try to prop up another Osama bin Laden and overthrow another peaceful socialist Nation like they did in Afghanistan. But hey at least if they establish a right-wing country in the west of China will be able to steal a bunch of oil again
@@MrMancreatedgod in ICE detention centers
@@crumb_of_nopeamine_plz up until 2013 in California, I don't about it still happening in other prison systems but ICE got caught doing it recently
in the seventies in East L.A. my mom was told that she had cancer and needed an operation. They gave her a hysterectomy and told her she only had 5 years to live. She is still alive. We are positive it was forced sterization.
Did you have a doctor check and confirm that it was a hysterectomy?
Or at best, a mistake. At worse, just out-to-make-that-extra money, relying on ignorance of patient.
I found this more disturbing than any episode of this is monsters about actual murder. That last story being so recent really shook me. Humanity truly is lost.
Me as well, it's SCARY what they've been up to for decades! As a grandchild of illegals, this hits close
@@thejudgmentalcat my wife is from the Philippines and her family overstayed when she was 8. She was on DACA for a long time until we got married. Her mom spent 5 years in ice detention and refuses to speak about it. Scary stuff.
As someone who was born in the US, being a part of my wife’s family has shown me how much I take for granted and it’s been really humbling to see how hard they’ve had to work for even basic things. But her parents have managed to put 8 kids thru school. I have one sister in law is about to graduate med school, one brother in law is a CPA, one brother in law is about to graduate from Davis, one sister in law is in law school, and my wife is a data analyst working in pharmaceuticals. They’re all successful, tax paying, productive members of society that many people would have had deported given the chance.
I know immigration is a complicated issue. I’m not naive. I know laws and regulations need to exist, but the way things are now is not right.
Idk have u watched season one of this is monsters.. THAT WAS INSANE!!
@@drfrankendoodle ah man I'm so sorry about how your wife and her family was treated. I work in immigration law & yes its so complex & often seems like you have to jump thru many hoops. It's nothing more than a money maker for the government. They don't see people as people. Just another case & don't forget to pay, pay pay! The attorneys are just as bad! That's why I try to help people for a small fraction. Immigration reform needs to change and quickly!
@@josiejo1986 the process of citizenship is so cost prohibitive and takes so long I understand why many people can’t/don’t do it. My wife and I went thru the interview process for her green card and I felt like we were treated like criminals the whole time. The environment at USCIS was very adversarial and she had anxiety even being in the building. She said when the separated us that she was afraid they’d just lock her up and I’d never see her again.
Our lawyer was overworked and jaded. Not her fault I’m sure but yeah between the cost of the filings and the length of the process it’s insane. And some of the questions they ask in that interview! It’s like their manuals were written in the 1800s. Talking about my wife like she was my property. It was surreal.
As one of many black, African or African-American fans of yours, I’m more than appreciative of your courage in sharing this story of my people’s plight. I’ve been with you since the beginning of This Is Monsters & will continue to be a massive supporter.
Thank you for the support and kind words, we really appreciate it.
👍❤️🙏
Thank you for sharing the story of my ancestor Fannie Lou Hamer. Pap was my great grandmother on my maternal grandfather's side, 1st cousin. We are so proudnof her and I'm honored to be a relative to her. But let's keep in mind that my mom was about 5/6 when Fannie was sterilized! She just turned 66 on the 20th. This happened in her lifetime and kept happening in her lifetime until she had graduated college! America's true history needs to be taught. We are so proud of the good, yet act like the bad never happened.
This “Deep South” series is going to be extremely interesting. So far, the first episode is killing it! Good job, guys!
@Clint Davis yep. The truth about our history kinda has a way of doing that!
Since when is California the "Deep South?" Don't make the South out as somehow worse than other regions. As for slavery, I wouldn't call working in dangerous factories for 12 hours or more per day with minimal pay much different a standard of living.
@@Slayerjane61 you’re right. Sorry bout that- but the slavery comment? Really? Calm down!
@@Slayerjane61There is blatant racism all across this country, much of it "in your face" in other parts of the country. But employment for low wages, in my opinion, is legalized wage theft. It is a distant cousin, possibly, of slavery. But not at all the same. Not even close.
@Slayerjane61 when was the last time you got beat or maimed by your boss for not working fast enough? What job requires you to work seven days a week and who told you that slaves only worked 12 hours a day? They literally started before the sun came up and didn't stop until after it went down. You can't name a working person today thay has it that bad. Stop.
It's really fucked up how the people who want hysterectomies are denied them and the people who want children are forced to have hysterectomies. Why can't people be guaranteed bodily autonomy?
Because people with uteruses aren't seen as anything more than something to be controlled. Our own choices are 2nd behind what's decided of our bodies by a white men.
Your overall point is fair, and the types of things seen in this video absolutely need to end, but "bodily autonomy" is far too complex to guarantee without exception, because it covers so many different facets of life beyond what is described in this video and things like abortion.
Let me ask you this: Should clinically diagnosed, legitimately mental ill people (schizophrenia/schizoaffective disorder, APD, BPD, clinical psychopathy, etc.) be forced to take medications that would almost certainly improve everyone's quality of life? Especially if they display signs of possible self-harm or are a danger to others? "Guaranteed bodily autonomy" says no, but "greater good" says yes. Should people displaying classic symptoms of those types of illnesses be forced to see a qualified doctor for diagnosis? "Guaranteed bodily autonomy" says no, but "greater good" says yes.
I ask these as someone with skin in the game, so to speak. My sister has been repeatedly diagnosed with schizophrenia, manic depression, schizoaffective disorder, bipolar disorder, and numerous other debilitating mental illnesses over the past two plus decades. She refuses to take any medications (her right in the state I live in), which prevent her from taking care of herself in any capacity, and has been effectively homeless most of her adult life. She is absolutely unable to work in her existing mental state. She lives in a van on my parents' property, even though she has had multiple no-trespass warrant against her for threatening people. She has no concept of personal hygiene and hasn't showered in years *by her choice*. She is a ward of the state, who officially recognize her mental illnesses and give her a bit of money each month (enough to buy some food every day) but not much else. She has effectively fallen in the cracks of society largely because of "bodily autonomy", mostly because she can choose to not see doctors or take prescribed medications; and those choices dynamically affect every aspect of her (and, to an extent, everyone she encounters') existence. She has taken her meds on and off at various points in the past and was able to function relatively normally, so this isn't theoretical. Her life would be unquestionably better if she were forced to take her meds. But does that make it the right choice? If she were to happen to get pregnant in her current state, she would be utterly incapable of taking care of a child. The result would be either another abortion statistic or yet another ward of the state, making the problem generational. Humanely sterilizing her would unquestionably mitigate problems that are otherwise unavoidable. But does that make it the right choice? Like I said, it's...complex.
These questions are largely rhetorical, although I am curious what others think about this particular facet of "bodily autonomy".
@@--_--IMP--_-- literally no. You can't force a person with mental illness to take medication except in EXTREME circumstances, because they have bodily autonomy. Even suggesting that shows that we still have a long way to come before mentally ill folks aren't treated like animals!
I say this as a person who works in community mental health around folks with severe and persistent mental illness experiencing homelessness every single day.
@@--_--IMP--_-- you disgust me
Wow I got to 55 years old before I learnt this. I'm shocked it happened and I never heard about it.
Same. Had no clue but damn if I'm not blown away that this happened for so long and to so many.
Edit: Never even heard of it in school. Disgusting how they keep hidden the tragic history of the United States.
I hate to tell you this but I heard about this back in the late 80s here in Australia. It truly saddens me at the lack of knowledge of your own history, of what had really been happening. And its still happening under the ICE regime, I saw a report on it back in 2019 and 2020.
If you really want to know what is happening in your country, I suggest you check out some international news services such as BBC World Radio, Radio International etc. or online video news services. My now ex-husband worked for a US based country and when they had their weekly round up, the USA guys were amazed at the stuff the guys from the UK, Germany, Spain, Australia etc. were talking about, stuff like nuclear meltdowns, coups, medical scandals in the USA and so on. These men living in California and New York had no idea what was happening in the outside world or at times even in their own country until they were put onto the world news radio information and they were SHOCKED!!
I'm a huge fan of monsters, and have never commented until today. I just wanted to say thank you for covering this story. My family was from the south and we would hear all kinds of stories of women this happened to, and in addition to that I have a cousin who was part the Tuskegee Syphilis Study which was also a violation of human rights. Kiddo's to you sir, and thanks again for covering this story!
Thank you for watching. we will be covering the Tuskegee Study in a future episode.
@@SomewhereSinister I look forward to seeing it, and thanks again for your awesome work!
@@25stampley oh I'm so sorry this happened to your family it was horrible what human beings are capable of doing I'm sending you hearts and hugs
@@25stampley similar studies were done in Guatemala as well I believe.
I am 77 years old. I have never heard of this criminal practice . This video should be out in the mainstream , so people like me are made aware . I can't find the words to express my anger .By the , I am white .
I am a direct product of this happening. I was adopted by my parents at 4 months from Biloxi Mississippi due to my mom being forced to have this done against her will. It was a statewide practice.
It is a serious violation of human rights . Some one needs to be prosecuted !
Having lived on the Northern Cheyenne Indian Rez...Indian Birney, Montana..Thank you for once again shining a light on the dark sinister places and people
of our world...the only thing it seems mankind has learned from history is that man never learns from history...
Well said.
Jeeze! I'm so glad you did this video. When my Nan moved here from Iceland she was a nurse but because most locals in Washington state looked down on immigrants my Nan could only get a job on the Native reservation. She worked there for only 8 months. She quit because she was in the operation room and witnessed the doctor sterilizing women who thought they were getting gall bladders removed. It bothered her deeply and she cried when she told me about it years later. She said she felt helpless and it put her into a depression for years. The only people who would listen to her were the natives and she told them what was happening to them.
Oh god... 😭
My father was in the US Air Force, we got stationed in Keflavik in 1967-68 when I was 10 to 11 years old.-I loved it there! Iceland is an awesome country!
@@sped17373 it is wonderful!! It's my secret home
I meant second not secret
tell your Nan that she's AMAZING for doing what she could to tell them the truth and not to feel guilty. She's a wonderfully compassionate person who actually did her job correctly (ie informed patients).
Oh my god! I’d never heard of this and I’m completely outraged! Motherhood has been the most fulfilling aspect my life, I can’t imagine having that taken away from me, especially in such a heinous manner! Thanks for sharing this important story.
...and there can be so many knock-on effects directly due to these obscene "medical procedures" such as marriage breakups, a lonelier old age, depression, etc...
It is your human right to have children . This government has stepped way out of line. That is the kind of thing I would expect from communist ..not America .
Man, I started crying as soon as you said Eugenics..... I am adopted. My mother was forcibly sterilized when she was 20 in 1958 almost a year after she was married. My dad had epilepsy. They adopted me in 1977. She refuses to talk about it even today. This happened in North Carolina.
I cannot believe that this is STILL happening!!! What is wrong with people? This is just sick and appalling! It must stop! Oh my goodness
Females are treated as public property and with the mentality that prevails it doesn't really help
It's scary to think that that I would have been sterilized myself back then. I'm autistic/ADHD. Whenever they mentioned it happening as late as 2019, my jaw dropped. I had to go hug my baby.
I’m sorry, your content is typically amazing as this one, but i just cannot listen to this one specifically. It just hurts to know people that look like me were hated for absolutely no reason in such recent memory and i had to stop about half way through. As always i give you my like, but i just cannot hear this much longer. Thank you for being you and continuously offering great content.
@@rationalbacon5872 you’re literally not worth the time.
I'm so sorry. ♥️
Me too. I can’t get through it. Especially seeing the latest resurgence of this hatred. It fills me with dread
💔
Thanks for your support. Stay strong. Justice starts as a small flame that becomes a raging fire.
I have great aunts alive today who had to experience this and it's heartbreaking. It not only prevented them from having the family they wanted, it's caused a lot of marital issues. I also strongly believe it's part of the reason they've developed psychological issues almost out of the blue over the years due to the trauma and constant upward battles they've had to face. Even without their own children, the pain still trickles down generations of lineage. It takes a toll on so many.
I was just commenting elsewhere as to the many effects this can have. I am so sorry your own family had to endure this and that it still resonates down the ages.
@@jwsuicides8095 thank you! It's so profound how strongly the action of other can effect the future of many more to come! The more we begin to understand ourselves and our actions, the more we can understand the pain others carry too! It's no wonder the world is exactly how it is. I literally have health issues pertaining to the uterus due to, what I believe, is the aftermath of trauma carried down from many generations.
@@juice_wink Trauma changes our dna and then gets passed on via that...generational traumas are real. Logical that someone carries the enforced sterilisation of relatives in their uterus. I'm half-Irish and that part of my family endured unnecessary starvation and subsequent death in a genocidal starvation process...the echoes were tangible for my grandparents who would have personally known some of the survivors, but the effects have certainly affected the nation beyond that 1 to 1 contact. Myself and a friend have been doing some generational healing of that dna and more using theta healing....which will be a process deemed ridiculous by many (and that's fair enough), but it has been working for us. It is interesting though that sometimes we can cause healing for those after us. All the best.
@@jwsuicides8095 I truly appreciate your response and you definitely can relate! I too am going through ancestral trauma healing and am so happy I finally found peace in walking away from the version of me I thought I had to except…as if it was simply fated. It’s much more too it than that and a very lonely road for me. Kudos to you my friend for being the death of what held your loved ones back and the rebirth of the NEW AND HEALED version of what your power will manifest! It’s honorable and I respect your strength!
Good morning, I binge watched the entire 1st season of Sinister, loved it, especially the episode The Climb. I was living in Oregon at the time it happened.
This is a Gem of a series, thanks for creating it ( I love Monsters as well) this just has a different vibe to it. All have a good day 😸
🤗👊🙏backatcha ❤️
Thank you for sharing the dark side of American History that so many would like to see suppressed because it’s extremely unpleasant. I love the way you tackle tough topics with straight up honesty. Thank you 🙏🏾
The sadness is almost to much
By the way, I hope that you will consider doing a mini-episode about the “Ugly Laws” that targeted poor and disabled people in the United States. I found it out about it from one of Imani Barbarian’s videos. They do fantastic work on disability rights.
Again, brilliant storytelling. I can tell you by living in the deep south, it is very much sinister
They did this everywhere in America, not just the South
@@masterbruce556 well, using your logic, you also agree that the south is sinister. Which means your comment is unnecessary. Lol.
I swear you are my spirit twin. It's like your venom, is mine! I love both your respect of subject, and your disgust at the subject matter. Dude, you are awesome. Many beneficences
to your channels!
Spirit twins unite!!
Thank you for your time and effort put in this subject.
This is crazy I had no idea!
So sad it is truly sinister 😢
Honestly the entire American South is a sinister place I will never willingly travel for fear of being assaulted or worse, because not much has changed in the south over the past 60 years
All of this took place not that long ago. I was born in 1980 and when my mom was a teenager this stuff was taking place, she had me at 15. this is absolutely crazy and devastating. how are we not educating more people about this, how is this been kept so hidden and quiet? I have no words it's just disgusting.
Obsessed with the new series 😀
On a less happy note it's stories like this that make me feel ashamed of my country I love so deeply
Thanks so much for this great story! The amount of work put into this and Monsters must keep you busy from sun up to sun down. The subject matter is heart breaking. Were we not at war with Hitler over some of these same practices? My son has epilepsy but he is far from feeble minded. Once again thank you for the hard work.
Thank you for the education on these horrifying procedures. I am speechless.
Another great episode 👏 Very sad story. 😔
Canada did this as well. My Mom's Indigenous cousin had a baby when she was a teen and when she had the baby they did a full histerectomy and she was not aware until she wanted to have a child in her 20's.... This was very common unfortunately!
I'm 63 in Alabama & I've never heard of this ever happening! Thanks so much for telling this great story!
@@tessaducek5601 I never learned about this in high school or in college It was never mentioned in my school
I'm horrified that these surgeries were conducted so recently.
Have we lost the right to call ourselves "human"?
No, we haven't lost that right because humans are evil just as much and as naturally as we are good. To be a horrific monster IS being human, unfortunately. People just do not want to address that fact.
It's heartbreaking to think that, not all that long ago, none of my three sons would have been allowed to be conceived by law in my country. It's equally heartbreaking to know there are STILL places in the world where my children would be considered mongrols or mud people.
I’m not sure why your kids would be called mud people or whatever but the prejudice is based on nature. Or a lot of it is. An animal will either abandon or sometimes eat offspring that are diseased or deformed because it wouldn’t be able to care for itself. And, well, other reasons. So try to understand how millions of years of that in our DNA may cause people to be wary.
Why would you choose to keep having disabled kids? Why do that to them if there's a chance.
@@breezedarkstorm666 My children are mixed race, not disabled. This video stated repeatedly that being "feeble minded" was often the excuse used to justify the sterilization of people of color, even when the women being sterilized were not ever diagnosed with a developmental or intellectual disability. Furthermore, the terms "mongrol" and "mud people" are terms used by white supremacists to devalue human beings that are not Caucasian. At no point in my previous comment did I suggest my sons are disabled, but rather that my wife would have qualified for sterilization by people and governments that promoted eugenics, simply because she isn't white. We wouldn't have even been legally allowed to be married, much less have children, until the late 1960's. Just because the video references that "feeble minded" women were forced to undergo hysterectomies doesn't mean that all, or even most, of the women sterilized were actually disabled. The narrator made it pretty clear that race was the main basis for forced sterilization, disabilities to the mother was often the convenient excuse to justify it legally.
@@breezedarkstorm666 There is always a chance.
Thanks Jiles for another awesome upload... I have worked in Medical Research for 18 years now. (insert boos here) The first thought I had was from an older gentleman with a "special ID tattoo". When asked if he would consent to be in a human subject study, his answer confused me for a moment. He said "Doctors can do a lot TO YOU. I have yet to see them do anything FOR YOU." he declined the study consent. He did achieve complete remission. You are really my favorite content provider!!
Happy for him to have lived long and on standing his ground. Sad that it destroyed his trust in what should be a sacred relationship between patients and doctors
@@khaightlynn5295 agreed sadly by the bad actions of some, the trust of many has been destroyed.
Thank you for covering this. Way too many people are fully ready to believe in the evil of an individual, but for some reason refuse to believe a bunch of those individuals could come together, become government entities, and perpetrate evil upon whoever they please. Monsters exist, and some have tons of power and education, and we all would be better off to remember that.
I’m really liking this new channel! Keep up the great work!
13:19 sterilized because she was accused of immortality!!! well, that's a new one for the books! :)
Not really new, but definitely horrifying
Yep, don't want anyone passing down those immortal genes!
I almost spat out my coffee when he said that. 😂😂😂 We can't have people living forever! 😆
just think of how that conversation went 🤣😂
That this is still happening, is very alarming
I did know about forced sterilization. I had absolutely NO IDEA how widespread it was. The US did this in Africa as well!!!
Buck beat that charge of "immortality."
13:19
Yeah yeah. Words are hard sometimes!
I was 17 years old when I went to ER in so much pain. I was told that an exploratory surgery would be done. I asked them not to take anything out. I beg my sister not to let them do anything else. Once I signed consent they could do anything, and they did. I woke up without one tube and one ovary. I could never get pregnant. Fast forward I'm married at 24 and want children. I went to this very mean but very good doctor. All my insides was all blocked where they shouldn't have been. This mean, good and wonderful doctor performed surgery on me and 6 weeks layer I was pregnant!! She will be 38 in August!!
💞💞💞
I am so happy for you that you were able to have a precious child thank Jesus
@@motaka3381
Yes Thank You Jesus. I would have had her without my prayers and the doctor I chose. No more babies came. It was indeed a one shot miracle correcting the mess they made of m Thanks Dear
I absolutely love that you started this second channel. It's such a good mix of topics you cover on this channel 👍
It's so deeply upsetting that this happened and further that so many women never got justice for the atrocities committed against them.
Can’t believe that happened. It’s devastating.
And it’s still happening.
This is such a great channel and it’s always so informative! I enjoy all of your uploads and I wish you continued success here and as well as your other channel! Thanks for your hard work.
I have autism and I am beyond terrified that I was sterilized against my will. Especially since the doctor made note I had a cyst on my ovary but didn't bother to remove it (I was getting my appendix removed) and it's known that I have autism.
If you still get your period you shouldn't worry. If you have a hysterectomy or even just your ovaries removed your periods will stop. You can also go to a gynecologist and find out if it would be worthwhile for your peace of mind.
@@exskoozme I haven't been able to go to a gynecologist because I live in America; health care is already really hard to pay for with the insurance I don't have a license to drive to one.
My periods are extremely irregular, and sometimes I don't get them for a month, but I know its not PCOS because I have no other symptoms. I may not have gotten them removed but that doesn't mean that they didn't do something else to them, like tying them. I know my mom still gets periods after she got her tubes tied
Thank you so much for this video!
Again, this intro is my nomination when someone does a "best TH-cam intros" compilation
What a disgusting story.
I traveled by bus to Clifornia in 1961 with my mama. When we got to the western states the cafés where the bus stopped to eat would allow no black people. My mama would order a lady's food and take it to her each stop. Forever grateful we were not raised to judge anyone by their skin...
I guess you're older than me
sad thing is there's still people out there that think only people that can afford kids should have them!! 😡 still unsure how these women didnt question why there periods disappeared though
Respect to Ms. Fannie Lou Hamer. She lived across the street from my family and she used to sharecrop with my grandmother. Her story is always heartbreaking but she stood her ground every step of the way. Very smart woman. RIP
She shone a light in the darkness. A true hero.
An important story that needs to be told Thank you Jiles for all your hard work Luv from Canada !
Slowly working your way out to the east side huh , I like the way you do things
Realistically, with the amount of f_cked up sh!t that happens in the US alone, he could "zig zag" back and forth from west to east in the northern and southern regions for the rest of his career *and still not* cover everything that happened. That's the crazy part if u were to ask me...one could literally have a career in documenting the horrific acts and sinister stories from when the US was in its infancy until present day.
@@amodernalchemist432
Yes, but could it be done in one's life? I don't think you would make it to the center of the country in a lifetime.
WOW! Growing up (born 1956) in southwestern Virginia, didn't learn this in History class! Thank you for taking on this subject so well produced. I Always watch to very end of your videos on both channels, 💘 love Monsters! So grateful you have the DV and Suicide prevention at the end of all videos, this could help One person, and that's alot. I always ♥ like but have not commented and have seen all your videos, and I heard someone needs to watch video to the end on TH-cam for the algorithm, so this Very brave of you to end like that, so a very big Thank you to You for those that this helps. One of you biggest fans 🤣 💙💙💙💙
I’m not sure why, but this one got me. These vids and the monster ones are usually just interesting and help with overall awareness. But this… something about it hits my stomach. Just people, living life, having so much taken from them, destroyed, for nothing. I think it’s because it’s not murder, they’re forced to just live life like this. I can’t imagine what they were feeling or going through and it breaks my heart we were at this point at anytime.
Same here. I can usually listen to other episodes objectively, but this one made me so angry. I had to stop half way through before I could finish.
Thank you so much for covering this topic. Many probably didn't even know! Thank you for exposing it.
Thank you for this episode!!!
I've heard these things before but likely only because I worked in human services. Thank you for telling it like it was, and sometimes still is.
Saved to: This one is infuriating, I’ll come back when I calm down!”
This was brilliant. Thank you.
Incredible. Thank you for making this.
My respect & compassion to the women, and admiration to those who represent all. I’m so sorry this has happened to you. Peace
Thank you for making this video.
I have literally been waiting for the next upload on both of your channels!! Love your content!
Whoever is behind this channel and the Monsters one does an amazing job. Kudos!
Thank you for drawing attention to an unexcusable evil that the general public is , for the most part, unaware of. As always, super well done, thoroughly researched and candidly presented.
Wow .. this is so unbelievably fucked up holy shit. Good work covering the stories of these women with respect and dignity. These stories made me wanna scream ...
LOVE the new series!
In May, 2021 a doctor that performed surgeries at a hospital I worked at for a time was sentenced to 59 years in prison for doing this. I wish I could have figured it out when I worked there.
😮😮😮 Wow. That's horrible to think that could happen now!
Is this the doctor!??😳
It makes me realize how important it is to get a second opinion before consenting to surgery!

Thank you for shinning a light on these horrific acts. It's talk about unfavorable facts of US history such as this that some people are trying to ban by force of law. They not only want to bury the dark past of their ancestors, they plan to continue that legacy. The truth must prevail to prevent these acts from being repeated.
This episode blew my mind! Great work, very informative and heartbreaking. Thanks Giles!
One of the best videos you've done!
Just disgusting how we're treated, all throughout history, and if you're a minority or poor you're screwed over even more.
How can you "accuse" some one or having syphilis? They either have it or don't.
Luv luv luv your remarks it's always what i'm thinking! Ty for your work
This is so horrific. And oddly I don’t remember being taught this at school. 🤔Hitler got a lot of his sinister ideas from America. He got the idea for concentration camps after admiring what the US was doing to Native Americans. Truly deplorable.
I had no idea that these atrocious acts were being performed so recently! Thank you for opening our eyes to this! Very interesting documentary. Once again you've hit it out of the ball park!
How timely. Thank you for telling these stories.
because if we don’t remember where we’ve come from…..….
I know I've said this more than once, but I'd love to see/hear a video by you about Dr.Kellogg. dude was wild
Kellogg's guide to life success
1) eat bland af food
2) never, ever, under no circumstances, in any way, shape, or form, touch your peepee or anyone else's peepee
3) eugenics
4) ???
5) profit. indefinitely. forever.
Dude was wild

This is sick. I did'nt know this happened. Thank you for covering this story. New subscriber here.
Thanks and welcome Kerri.
Thank you! Makes me love your channel even more 😍
Thank you Jiles for standing up for justice and shining light on subjects that others shun!!! God bless!!!
Nice work! We love you putting your touch on your channels! Both great content! Thank you!
Excellent report. You are very courageous.
GILES YOU ARE A KING!!! I'm recent to this channel (been subscribed to This Is Monsters since it launched) and I am even more impressed by Giles and crew. What fantastic videos! Interesting, brief but detailed but most importantly RESPECTFUL! So many true crim/disaster channels use their content to promote and make money with so little care for the victims. These two channels are amongst the very, very best. Please keep up the good work. You are fantastic!
This is so horrifyingl its mind blowing well done for covering something which I feel most people involved would rather you hadn't
The worst part about this is that this is STILL happening
I just watched Endever. The roots of modern psychological torture. Dr Ewan Cameron on MK Uktra.
Thanks for this narration. How sinister.
Thanks
Thank you for the upload this is a very informative video I had no idea all this was going on in that time frame
It is scary to think that this happened in the 70's🤯....not that long ago....thanks Jiles for another great video🙏🏽👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
It's shocking and disgusting that this was happening so recently. The lives of people that were ruined, this is so sick. Thank you for making this video, so educational for people that weren't taught this happened in school.
I'm speechless. I just finished watching this and I have so many feelings to work through. Primarily disgust.
That is an appropriate feeling.
Working in a jail in Upstate New York, every day was a reminder of the Tuskegee Study. I was shocked to have to explain it to newly hired nurses who didn’t learn about it in nursing school, and in my opinion it should be on the licensing exam.
I want to suggest a show on the Rothchild family who practiced their own form of eugenics within their own family, carefully monitored by the head of each generation.
I remember learning about this from my Aunt. This happened to her after she was sterilized after giving birth to a baby girl who died. I am not from the south but I know they were doing this everywhere. All because my Aunt is Mexican and Native. I watched a documentary about them giving women so called "birth control " in Puerto Rico. They sterilized a lot of women.
I appreciate you covering this. This is why I believe we should take the life of babies more seriously. But that is my belief lol. I love your channels BTW. I finally got to watch this channel. Take care.
Wow, I don't usually write comments on TH-cam, but I felt the need to after watching it in its entirety. The timing of this video is incredible, given the Supreme Court’s decision to overturn Roe vs. Wade yesterday (06/24/2022)r. I feel like the topic of forced sterilization and eugenics, as well as racism, has been seriously overlooked when politicians are focused on limiting women's (or any person who has a uterus) reproductive healthcare - the choice to have a full-term pregnancy or abortion.
Thank you for your hard work in making this video. I would love to look at the sources you used as a starting point to become more educated about this topic. 👀📝
Thank you so much for sharing this story!☮️🌼🐝safe
That is very Sinister! Thank you Jiles ☆
Thank-you
