Rebecca traster was generous enough to come talk to me yesterday for a while. It's actually the second time we've talked for the show. The first time, somehow, was the day that it became clear that bret cavanagh would be the next supreme court justice. We also ended up talking about how her writing has changed over the last year,. How it changed when the alido leak came and also how she thinks it might change going forward.
Rebecca Traister is a writer for New York and the author of Good and Mad: The Revolutionary Power of Women’s Anger. Her latest article is "The Necessity of Hope."
“A big motivation of this piece, which I think is framed in this there’s still reason to hope is actually the inverse of that. Which is: Let us be crystal clear about what is happening, what is lost, what is violated. The cruelty, the horror, and the injustice, and that is it only moving toward worse right now. And to establish that to then say that it is the responsibility to really absorb that, and then figure out how to move forward.”
