Judith Rosenbaum ，

Brilliant， heartbreaking， inspiring， and even a little hopeful。 I laughed， I raged， I cried， I underlined way too much of the text。

A closer look at the female lawyers who fought different Trump-era policies through the law and activism。 Each chapter focuses on a specific problem and the woman who worked against itI have mixed feelings about this book。 I found chapters fascinating and I learned a lot about the law and the many different ways that activism and the law intersect。 The women highlighted were inspiring， and the events surrounding each case were vividly well-written。 However， the book as a whole fell flat to me。 I A closer look at the female lawyers who fought different Trump-era policies through the law and activism。 Each chapter focuses on a specific problem and the woman who worked against itI have mixed feelings about this book。 I found chapters fascinating and I learned a lot about the law and the many different ways that activism and the law intersect。 The women highlighted were inspiring， and the events surrounding each case were vividly well-written。 However， the book as a whole fell flat to me。 I think its a mix of the author's use of woman as a monolith （women lawyers did this。。。， women tend to do that，，，，） as well as the many Handmaiden's Tale references that gave me out-dated white feminism vibes - that type of "color-blind" feminism， which can be problematic。 I still think that this is a great book that does a great job explaining law to laypeople and the stories of these women and their activism is well written and emotional to read。 I just wanted to like it more than I did。Book from Netgalley 。。。more
