Woman and the New Race

"Woman and the New Race" by Margaret Sanger is a book focused on social and political ideas from the time after World War I. The book talks about women's rights, their health when it comes to having children, and what happens when there are too many people in the world. Sanger argues that women should be free to decide when to have children because that's important for their freedom overall. She also goes into the past roles of women in society, which caused women to have difficult lives and health problems. Sanger believed that birth control was a way to solve the problem of too many people being born, leading to healthier families and a better society, also focusing on women stuck in poverty, needing access to birth control.
