Planned Parenthood (Founder), Betty Friedan

Planned Parenthood is a nonprofit organization founded by Margaret Sanger in 1916, aimed at providing reproductive health care and education, including access to contraception and family planning services. Sanger championed women's rights to control their own bodies and reproductive choices. Betty Friedan was a prominent feminist and author, best known for her 1963 book, "The Feminine Mystique." This work sparked the second wave of feminism in the United States, challenging traditional gender roles and advocating for women's social, political, and economic rights. Both Sanger and Friedan significantly contributed to advancing women's rights and reproductive freedoms.
