In the 1920s and 1930s, thousands of 'habitual criminals' and the 'feebleminded' were sterilised at asylums and prisons across America. In 1936, inmates at Oklahoma's McAlester prison refused to cooperate. They fought the case to the US Supreme Court. This book tells the stories of these men and women.
