Hi friends, happy Thursday!

Welcome to the Dark History podcast. Today, we are going to talk about a racist creation, a drug invented to control populations, which devastated the fertility of an entire nation. That drug? Birth Control.

Tune in next week for more dark history.

You can find the Dark History podcast on Apple, Spotify, wherever you listen to your podcasts, and every Thursday here on my Youtube for the visual side of things.
