Rebecca Traister is the author of "Good and Mad: The Revolutionary Power of Women's Anger." ( Victoria Stevens)

This interview originally aired on October 10, 2018.

Hundreds of women protested the Supreme Court nomination of Judge Brett Kavanaugh, disrupting the judicial hearings to express their fury. This anger is nation-shaping, argues journalist and best selling author Rebecca Traister in her new book “Good and Mad: The Revolutionary Power of Women’s Anger.” Traister joins Forum to talk about the history of female anger, how it’s been discouraged, and why women’s collective rage has the power to transform politics.

Guests:

Rebecca Traister, journalist and author, 'Good and Mad: The Revolutionary Power of Women's Anger'
