Abstract

Margaret Sanger was a New York City nurse in 1912 when she began writing a series of articles for the New York Call that would becompiled into the 1916 book What Every Girl Should Know. By the time she wrote “Birth Control and Racial Betterment” in 1919, an article published in the monthly Birth Control Review, she had launched a new movement for birth control and women’s empowerment.
