Mixed-race African German and Vietnamese German children were born around 1921, when troops drawn from the French colonial empire occupied the Rhineland. These children were forcibly sterilized in 1937. Racial anthropologists had denounced them as "Rhineland Bastards," collected details on them, and persuaded the Nazi public health authorities to sterilize 385 of them. One of the adolescents later gave public interviews about his experiences. Apart from Hans Hauck, very few are known by name, and little is known about how their sterilization affected their lives. None of the 385 received compensation from the German state, either as victims of coerced sterilization or as victims of Nazi medical research. The concerned human geneticists went unprosecuted.

混血非洲裔德国人和越南裔德国人儿童于 1921 年左右出生,当时来自法国殖民帝国的军队占领了莱茵兰地区。这些孩子于 1937 年被强制绝育。种族人类学家将他们称为“莱茵兰杂种”,收集了他们的详细信息,并说服纳粹公共卫生当局对其中 385 人进行绝育。其中一名青少年后来公开讲述了自己的经历。除了汉斯·豪克之外,很少有人以名字为人所知,也很少有人知道他们的绝育对他们的生活产生了什么影响。这 385 人都没有从德国政府那里获得赔偿,无论是作为强制绝育的受害者还是纳粹医学研究的受害者。相关的人类遗传学家也没有受到起诉。(2022 年;112(2):248-254. https://doi.org/10.2105/AJPH.2021.306593)。
