ms session

Dear Boris,
You requested that we remind you about the following event:
History Forum: Margaret Sanger

Minnesota History Center, St. Paul MN, 651-259-3000
As a public health nurse in the New York slums, Margaret Sanger worked with hundreds of mothers who wanted to ease their families’ path out of poverty by preventing unintended pregnancies, but had no safe way to do so. The experience inspired Sanger to launch a 50-year crusade to legalize birth control and sex education. Presented by Ellen Chesler, historian and author of the Sanger biography "Woman of Valor," and director of Hunter College’s Eleanor Roosevelt Initiative on Women and Public Policy at Roosevelt House.

Time: 2 to 3:15 p.m.
