This is horrible, and it was not even a long time ago. Silently want to eradicate natives by forcing an IUD in them is just vile.
Australia gets a bad rap but lets not forget Denmarks treatment of Greenland indigenious people. It seems to have flown under the radar.
A shameful chapter of Danish history. The women now suing for reparations only want less than 50k Euro each, it’s bizarre that the state doesn’t just pay that tiny amount instead of contesting it.
It will be intresting investigation since this doesn’t make much of a seanse.
Not a single one talk to their parents after this happend?
Greenland population was only 50k back then and fertility rate was 2,3 so doubt that gov felt need to do race based population control.
Sounds like retarded version of anti teenpregnancy program. But really 0 parents knew?
4,5k in 4 years? That is 20% of all woman Back then it would be 25% Considering 10% of population being danes themself it would bring even closer to 30%. Not to mention reproductive age and age when it is possible to do.
Time of demographics crash doesn’t corelate with this, unless you want to tell me the average of first child for Inuits was 15 years old. That would explain why Danes would do that, still wrong but at least we have motive. It would be more like 20 years old considering current global lowest. So 8 to 6 years after the start we should see the effects, not on yearly basis. 4,5k woman is every single one of them on yearly basis for 9 years after lets say, reaching 12 years old. It also says “many more” after that so even %.
If you told me the was 1958-1964 I wouldn’t bat an eye because there is fertility drop that would corespond with such massive contraception program. But 1966-1970 doesn’t make any seanse and I do not see it in data.
EDIT: For people who downvote me, Yeah how dear I look into subject matter and not just take The Guardian on face value. How dare I use brain and not simply go “Denmark bad”.
Well, today I learned
Europe has a long and cruel history, if you’re a minority, too bad
how is this not exactly genocide?
.
I feel like lots of people don’t know this, but many states did this to the poor and women of color as well. North Carolina is one particular state I can think of.
