1.0 out of 5 stars Not a hero -- Woodhull was a racist!, September 6, 2008
This review is from: A Woman for President: The Story of Victoria Woodhull (Hardcover)
This book portrays Woodhull as a hero, but she was a racist and embraced FORCED STERILIZATION. She advocated for the malevolent position of eugenics. You can read her own words in the book *Free Lover: Sex, Marriage And Eugenics in the Early Speeches of Victoria Woodhull*. According to Amazon.com, "Her speeches and writings laid the eugenic foundation for the forced sterilization laws passed in over thirty states from 1907 on. When the U.S. Supreme Court declared such laws constitutional in 1927...."

DO NOT BUY THIS BOOK. SHE WAS NOT A HERO! Don't lie to the children.
