How has the birth control pill changed women's lives?

On the next Your Call, we'll have a conversation with Elaine Tyler May, professor of American Studies at the University of Minnesota and author of America and the Pill: A History of Promise, Peril, and Liberation. Around 100 million women world-wide including 12 million women in the United States take a form of regular oral contraceptive. What should we be celebrating as the pill turns 50 this year? What are the Pill's downsides?

Join us live at 11 or send us an email at feedback@yourcallradio.org. What effect has the pill had on your life? Do you think it has been good for society as a whole? It's Your Call, with Rose Aguilar and you.
