In a landmark ruling, Japan's Supreme Court has condemned the nation's dark past of forced sterilizations. For nearly 50 years, until 1996, Japan allowed sterilization of disabled individuals without consent. Over 25,000 people fell victim to this cruel practice. The court declared the law unconstitutional, ordering compensation for survivors. Elderly plaintiffs celebrated their hard-fought victory outside the courthouse. The government expressed remorse and promised swift action. Japan's Prime Minister may meet with victims. Interestingly, Japan's eugenic law was part of a global movement, with similar practices in countries like the US and Sweden..
