For this assignment, we’ll be exploring more about forced sterilizations and informed consent. Here is the consent that the women who were sterilized signed:

“The undersigned patient, and spouse, or responsible relative or person, hereby consent to, authorize, and request the surgeons of the Los Angeles County to perform the following operative procedure, which will or may result in sterilization, and acknowledge it has been fully explained to them. They further acknowledge their complete understanding that an operation that results in sterilization means the loss of the ability to become pregnant or bear children.”

In a brief (200-400 words) essay please analyze the above consent form and at least one of the required readings (locate them here: The Chicana Movement- Required Reading) by addressing the following question(s).

What issues can you identify with the consent for a tubal ligation above? According to the victims’ statements in the required reading, which ways was informed consent denied to them? (What issues do you see with the consent form? What issues did the women have during their experiences)?

Remember to be specific, include and discuss quotes, and cite after each quote.

Please use complete sentences, proper grammar, and correct punctuation. If you quote you must cite correctly your source. As always plagiarism will result in a zero. Do not copy and paste; you must provide original analysis and draw your own conclusions.

Connecting your discussion to the required primary sources, module lecture, module films, or the optional textbook is always recommended. Adding in quotes from these sources helps you provide more in depth analysis, especially if the quote is from a primary source. Do not use any outside materials except the module, the textbook, and the primary source documents.
