The Autobiography Of Margaret Sanger by Margaret Sanger
This autobiography chronicles the life and work of a pioneering activist for women's reproductive rights, who played a critical role in the birth control movement in the early 20th century. The author candidly recounts her experiences growing up in a working-class family, her work as a trained nurse, and her tireless efforts to educate women about contraception, despite frequent arrests and legal challenges. Her narrative weaves personal struggles with her broader mission to empower women through access to birth control, a cause that would eventually lead to the establishment of the first family planning clinics and the foundation of an organization that would become a global leader in reproductive health.
