520 |a Part of a special issue on native women and state violence. The writer documents the abuse inflicted by a colonialist, patriarchal state on Native American women in the form of unauthorized, involuntary sterilization procedures conducted by the Indian Health Service. She reviews the various investigations, charges, and lawsuits in the early 1970s that eventually prompted the Department of Health, Education, and Welfare to change the regulations on sterilizations in an attempt to address and prevent coercion. She also discusses the terrible legacy of sterilization abuse: the removal of Indian women's right and ability to bear children, the next generation; and the silencing of their voices through shame and fear of retribution.
