Women have been mad prior to this moment...but post-2016 election there is a kind of anger that has taken a mass form.
Show Notes
Rebecca Traister’s new book "Good and Mad" details how women’s anger has erupted into the public conversation. In our first Off Stage interview on women, she tells USA Today Washington Bureau Chief Susan Page that women are “mad that Donald Trump is president and they’re mad about sexual harassment.” Women in the past have been angry individually, but a new movement that emerged following the 2016 election reflects collective anger, says Traister. Her book "Good and Mad" was released October 2nd.
