Woman And The New Race (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781162717623)

""Women and the New Race"" is a book written by Margaret Sanger, a prominent American birth control activist and women's rights advocate. Published in 1920, the book explores the importance of birth control and its potential to improve the lives of women and their families. Sanger argues that women have been oppressed by their inability to control their own bodies and reproductive choices, leading to poverty, disease, and social inequality. She advocates for the widespread availability of birth control methods as a means of empowering women and improving their health and well-being. The book also touches on topics such as sex education, eugenics, and the role of women in society. Sanger's writing is passionate and persuasive, drawing on her own experiences as a nurse and activist to make a compelling case for reproductive freedom. Overall, ""Women and the New Race"" is a groundbreaking work that helped to shape the modern feminist movement and remains relevant today as a call to action for women's rights and reproductive justice.In every nation of militaristic tendencies we find the reactionaries demanding a higher and still higher birth rate. Their plea is, first, that great armies are needed to defend the country from its possible enemies; second, that a huge population is required to assure the country its proper place among the powers of the world. At bottom the two pleas are the same.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
