The Sierra Club was originally founded in 1892 as the first large-scale conservation movement in the world. It grew dramatically under the leadership of radical activist David Brower in the 1950s and 1960s. Brower advocated a form of eugenics:

History

The club has chapters in all 50 United States, Washington D.C., and Puerto Rico. It was founded on May 28, 1892 in San Francisco, California by Scottish-American preservationist John Muir, who became the first president as well as the longest serving president, at approximately 20 years in this leadership position.

Muir was a close friend with Henry Fairfield Osborn, a New York City aristocrat and conservationist who helped found the American Eugenics Society (AES), which promoted the idea of population control and genetics manipulation. Muir died before the AES was founded.

David Starr Jordan, who was on the club’s board during Muir’s presidency, was a "kingpin" of the eugenics movement, including advocating for the forced-sterilization laws that affected predominantly Black, Latina and Indigenous women. He also co-founded the Human Betterment Foundation, which produced research later taken up by Nazis.
