Emma Goldman is one of the most celebrated activists and
philosophers of the early 20th century, admired and reviled for her
anarchist ideas and vociferous support of free speech and personal
liberation. A polarizing figure in life, Emma Goldman was among the
first advocates of birth control for women. From 1900 to 1920 she
was in and out of jail in the United States on charges of illegally
promoting contraception, inciting riots in favor of her social and
economic causes, and discouraging potential recruits to avoid the
draft for World War I. Although Goldman initially supported the
Bolshevik Revolution, the resulting Soviet Union's repressiveness
caused an abrupt reversal in her opinion. Goldman's narrative is
thorough yet compelling; her childhood in Russia, her emigration to
the USA as a teenager, and her attraction to anarchist and social
causes is told.
