1 ene 1906 año - First U.S. national eugenics organization\
formed by American Breeders' Association
Descripción:
1906. Following a request from Charles Davenport, the American Breeders’ Association (ABA) formed a Committee on Eugenics. It was the first national eugenics organization in the United States, and was led by Luther Burbank.
The ABA was interested in researching issues that were of interest to eugenics, and the Committee on Eugenics attempted to examine and make accessible to a larger public ideas of selective breeding to create superior stock, recording and controlling heredity in human beings, and minimizing the "threat" of inferior humans (Selden, n.d.). It became the precursor to Eugenics Records Office, and the American Eugenics Society.
