Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Birth Control: What It Is, How It Works, What It Will Do; The Proceedings of the First American Birth Control Conference, Held at the Hotel Plaza, New York, November, 11, 12, 1921 The First American Birth Control Conference, like every great landmark in the history of human progress, grew out of an idea. For years Mrs. Margaret Sanger, and her little band of faithful helpers, had been engaged on the lecture platform, in the columns of the Birth Control Review, in thousands of communications with individual men and women, through the selling of literature on the streets, and even in jail, in the uphill task of bringing Birth Control to the attention of the public. In the summer of 1921 she sent out a letter addressed to people prominent in biology, medicine, economics, sociology and social service, and also to well-known business and professional men, writers and educators. About five hundred of these men and women were asked their opinion as to whether the time was opportune for a national conference on Birth Control and whether in case such a conference were held, they would be willing to help financially, by contributing papers, or by personal work in connection with it. A surprisingly favorable response was received from these letters. Replies were received from 40 per cent, of the persons addressed and opinion seemed overwhelmingly in favor of the calling of a conference. In view of this response, it was arranged to call the First American Birth Control Conference to meet in New York, November 11, 12, and 13, 1921. From among those who had signified their willingness to aid, a large Conference Committee was formed, with Mrs. Margaret Sanger as chairman.
