How was the eugenics movement a discriminatory practice and policy? The eugenics movement was a discriminatory practice because of biological determinism, which, according to him, specific characteristics are determined by biology, which explains why people are categorized as attractive or undesirable. In addition to supporting discriminatory policies, the eugenics movement made immigration for people of colour impossible and banned marriages between unwanted individuals. In eugenics, selected breeding was encouraged for those considered genetically superior, and oppressive methods, such as sterilization, were enforced on marginalized populations. Racism and sexism were encouraged, resulting in racial segregation, discrimination against non-whites, and gender disparities. Biological determinism was misrepresented by the eugenics movement, which implied that specific populations were disadvantaged while maintaining social inequalities.
