*Race Suicide* (1938) is an early exploitation film masquerading as an educational exposé of the medical underground. The story follows a district attorney who becomes determined to take down an overzealous doctor pressuring young women into procuring illegal abortions. The film delves into the intersection of eugenics and anti-abortion rhetoric prevalent in the 1930s, using sensationalism to highlight the dangers of illegal medical procedures.
