The process we underwent in choosing our topic was a little more involved than most groups.

First, our topic, we decided, was the Flappers of the 1920s, however, we couldnt seem to tie it easily to the theme. Our next thought was to use women of the 1920s as our subject, but then realized it to be too broad. Finally we settled with a specific woman who changed laws and could be integrated with Rights and Responsibilities: Margaret Sanger arose and finalized our decision with her immense investment into contraceptive rights for women. With the change of subject also followed an alteration in the medium we would present our information: we initially wanted an exhibit, but resolved to a website, which we felt could encompass all the information associated with our revised topic. Conducting the research, in my opinion, is always the most difficult part of any project. For me, my subject accommodated many primary and secondary sources, which were readily available online. So I utilized those and created an essay with the sources Id gathered. The essay became the blueprint from which our websites contents derived. After completing the website, it was agreed that the website allowed more flexibility than an exhibit, which was limited in comparison. Margaret Sangers campaign expanded over many decades, and with those years its impact was evident as it improved womens reproductive rights progressively. Finally, it met its breakthrough with the dissolution of Comstock Acts in America, affirming contraception to be included in the citizens right to privacy. Then, based off the ruling that legalized contraceptive use, abortion received passage under the same circumstances to be a right of the woman, more so a rightful, legal option of the womans. With so many references to rights, it should be obvious how our topic relates

to the NHD theme. Nonetheless, to plainly state it, Margaret Sangers Birth Control Crusade conjured up the concept of reproductive rights for women, and limited governmental interference. She paved way for federal laws to both be disestablished and instituted, granting greater freedom of privacy, autonomy of contraception, and personal responsibility of women to or not to bear children.
