Planned Parenthood divided and continues to divide American society to this day. But this organization that has become synonymous in the U.S. with birth control and abortion did not begin as an American company but as a global enterprise headed by strong and outspoken women. The International Planned Parenthood Federation (founded in 1953) was the first of its kind and by the 1960’s it was chaired by one of Europe’s leading Women’s Activists, Elise Ottesen-Jensen. But to understand this climactic achievement in Elise’s life, we have to go back to the beginning. Featured Guest: Helen Erwin, an author whose book Sour Milk in Sheeps Wool focuses on Elise’s era of activism.
