Partial Bibliography on the Involuntary Sterilization of Native Americans in the 1970s.
Note on the bibliography...
One of the most serious outbreaks of involuntary sterilization took place at Indian Health Service clinics throughout the USA. Complaints of sterilization abuse were brought to the attention of then US Senator James Abourezk from South Dakota in the 1970s. Abourezk demanded a General Accounting Office (GAO) investigation. An initial investigation was undertaken which verified the disturbing pattern of involuntary sterilizations, many of them done on women just after they had given birth and were often still under the effects of birth-related drugs and pain killers, ie. in no condition to give informed consent. Many of the women victimized denied that any permission to perform tubal ligations was even asked. Even this initial GAO probe revealed that several thousand women were so victimized. However no follow up investigation was ever done, a strange fact in and of itself given the initial results.
Very little was reported on this incident in what might be called the mainstream press. A rare article can be found here and there in national newspapers. I have been told, but have not been able to verify that some local papers, especially in Oklahoma did report on the incident. In any case, given the possible scope of the injustice, and the general history of eugenics which was already known by the early 1970s, the lack of mainstream media attention is itself a curious thing. Anyone researching newspapers like the New York Times, the Washington Post and the Los Angeles Times - often considered among the best of the traditional print media - would come up empty, or nearly so.
In order to find this story, it becomes necessary to turn to what has been labeled `the alternative media'. The main stories were covered in the nation's Catholic newspapers and magazines, in the small but important Native American media (Akwesane Notes, American Indian Journal, the radical feminist press (very good articles in `Off Our Backs' for example) and a few pieces in Marxist journals. A few other publications dealt with the story but very few. Although I have not done a thorough search, I do think it important to note that to my knowledge, no anthropological, sociological or historical mainstream journal has considered the story important enough to write about or discuss.
It appears that a number of people are doing graduate work on this subject, including a Native American sociologist at the University of New Mexico, whom I met a number of years ago in Albuquerque. I have heard vague echoes of one or two others. Hopefully their research and work will soon be published and will add to our understanding of this painful episode in American cultural history.
The following bibliography is purposefully limited in scope. It is meant to give those interested in pursuing this issue simply a starting point. I intend to add to it as new information becomes available.
