The truth about Denmark's dark past | ATLAS
The state of #Denmark has kept quiet about its dark past for years. But in 2022, a Danish broadcaster uncovered thousands of crimes that Denmark had committed against Greenlandic girls and women since the 1970s. Under the guise of health checkups and "family planning programs," Danish doctors performed painful procedures on underage Greenlandic women. Many victims of this so-called IUD campaign are still traumatized, ill, or permanently disabled.
In the new episode of #ATLAS, you'll learn what plan the Danish government was pursuing in #Greenland and how those affected are now fighting together for justice and recognition.
