1 min read

#NotoriousRBG is a unique phenomenon in American history. Only the second woman to serve on the US Supreme Court, she led the way, beginning in the 1970s, in pursuing legal remedies for discrimination against American women and girls. At the same time, she developed a singular public voice and presence; atypical of Supreme Court justices and, as such, becoming a widely, and wildly, iconic figure in pop culture. The biography by authors Irin Carmon and Shana Knizhnik, is a delightful combination of stories, images of mementos and photographs, and a serious account of her role in making legal history and a fairer world for every American woman.

Irin Carmon joins us for this week’s #VoteHerIn podcast, a collaboration of Two Broads Talking Politics & author Rebecca Sive.
