Inside California’s secret sterilisation programme – and its antivax legacy

Hundreds, if not thousands, of inmates were sterilised against their will. The impact on lives and trust in medicine has been devastating

As soon as Moonlight Pulido awoke from her operation, she knew something wasn’t right. Every inch of her body was covered in sweat, while a deep scar – red and raw – stretched across her lower abdomen.

An inmate at California’s Valley State Prison, Moonlight had agreed to undergo a procedure in which two growths in her ovaries would be removed, due to the risk they could turn cancerous. Instead, she was given a full abdominal hysterectomy.

Barbara Kay: Defamation case against antisemitic slander only the beginning

On July 10, 2020, a statement of claim for defamation was issued against Kimberley Hawkins, owner and “directing mind” of now-closed Toronto Bloor St. eatery, Foodbenders. The plaintiff, Shai DeLuca, a Canadian with Israeli citizenship, is a designer and longtime contributor to CTV’s lifestyle show, Cityline. He’s also a gay Zionist who served with the IDF as a combat engineer.

Hawkins is an ardently progressive, anti-Zionist activist. She mounted a gigantic “I (heart) Gaza” sign in Foodbenders’ window; her social media account warned “Zionists” (taken by many to mean Jews) away from her business. In short, you couldn’t ask for any antagonists more passionately divided in their beliefs about Israel or more committed to defending their corner to the bitter end.

The suit was triggered by offensive statements featuring DeLuca’s name on Foodbenders’ official Instagram account; a gravely problematic one read: “(DeLuca) is an IDF SOLDIER (aka terrorist) yet he’s using the BLM movement for likes. How can you sit here and post about BLM when you have your sniper rifle aimed at Palestinian children.”


The plaintiff’s real life embrace of the anti-white and of late Hamas supporting hate group BLM was OK but the comment about theoretically killing Palestinian kids while serving in the IDF was bad. Okey Dokey. 

Both parties should have lost. I have no sympathy for anyone who supported BLM or DEI. They didn’t seem to mind when their hate group’s targets were white people.
