Ep. 67 Margaret Sanger: A Complicated Legacy of Birth Control & Eugenics


Listen Later

In this episode, we explore the life and legacy of Margaret Sanger, founder of Planned Parenthood and a key figure in the fight for birth control access. While Sanger’s work empowered women to take control of their reproductive health, her legacy is complicated by her involvement with the eugenics movement. We dive into her early life, her advocacy for family planning, and the ethical questions surrounding her efforts. Join us for a thought-provoking look at how Sanger's impact still resonates in today’s conversations about reproductive rights.
