Cat Saunders writes about how male infant circumcision violates the human rights of baby boys.She believes that the continued circumcision of baby boys in the US is a violation of their human rights.
We Americans recoil in horror at reports of female circumcision in other countries, yet we refuse to see that brutal acts of genital mutilation are committed every day on baby boys in the United States.
—Cat Saunders
Dr. Cat interviews a group of nurses from St. Vincent's Hospital in Santa Fe, New Mexico. These nurses felt ethically obligated to become conscientious objectors to circumcision. They took a stand and refuse to participate in infant circumcision at the hospital.
