In 2002, Kevin Begos, the Winston-Salem Journal’s Washington correspondent, sent an email to Johanna Schoen, an academic researcher and an assistant women’s history professor at the University of Iowa about records she had pertaining to North Carolina’s eugenics program. In the email, Begos asked Schoen to give him access to those records, Schoen said. Schoen believes that Begos learned about the eugenics after she asked another North Carolina newspaper to do a story about the program. That paper refused, she said. “I was willing to give (Begos) access to anything he wanted,” Schoen said. After Schoen and Begos negotiated about his requests, Schoen allowed him to travel her home to Iowa City, Iowa, to see the records of North Carolina’s eugenics program, which had authorized more than 7,600 sterilizations from 1929 through 1974.
