Margaret Sanger 
Woman and the New Race [EPUB ebook] 

Woman and the New Race by Margaret Sanger, first published in 1920, is a groundbreaking work that explores the intersection of women’s rights, birth control, and social reform. In this book, Sanger argues that the empowerment of women is intrinsically linked to their ability to control reproduction, advocating for the widespread availability of birth control to improve women’s health, social status, and economic opportunities. Through a blend of social commentary, medical insights, and feminist principles, Sanger challenges traditional views on sexuality, marriage, and motherhood, positioning birth control as essential not only for individual freedom but for societal progress. The book discusses the harmful effects of overpopulation, the struggles of women living in poverty, and the need for education on reproductive health. Sanger also critiques the social, religious, and political forces that restrict women's autonomy over their bodies. Throughout Woman and the New Race, Sanger emphasizes the importance of family planning as a tool for personal and societal transformation, encouraging women to take control of their destinies. The work played a significant role in shaping the early discourse on reproductive rights and remains a vital text in the history of feminist thought and advocacy.
