Margaret Sanger: Founder of Modern Society (1979)
Margaret Sanger: Founder of Modern Society by Elasah Drogin in International Review of Natural Family Planning, Volume III, Number 2, Summer 1979
Margaret Sanger devoted her entire life to "her cause," the international birth control movement. She coined the term "birth control" and successfully fought the American judicial system and Christian tradition in her effort to strike down the laws forbidding distribution of contraceptive devices and information. As president of the American Birth Control League, she edited its publication, the Birth Control Review. She founded Planned Parenthood of America and became honorary president of International Planned Parenthood. She established the Margaret Sanger Research Bureau, which financed and engineered the immigration of Germany's Dr. Ernst Graefenberg, one of the pioneers of the IUD. These are a few of her best-known accomplishments, but the lesser-known ones complete the explanation of her great influence on our society.
