Summary

In this episode of We Read a Book! Bianca and Laurie speak with Linda Robinson about her new book, Women in Power: Fighting for Democracy in the Age of Authoritarianism . Linda, an award winning journalist and foreign policy expert, tells the depressing story of how authoritarian and deeply misogynistic movements are pushing women out of political power and how, despite all this, some women are changing their countries and even the world.
