- Goldman wanted women to be liberated and free. She wanted the state to give up power over women
(e.g. the right to birth control). She wants women to have equality but sees the state as a barrier to this

Goldman didn't think women gaining the vote would give them the freedom they were fighting for.
This is directly against the goal of the first wave (suffrage).

with the state and
city planning. He
talks about the
