Episode 143: Misogyny and the Law

International Women's Day will be celebrated on March 8th. It is a day to celebrate while also taking stock of women's rights here in the United States and abroad.  This year, we see a number of countries making significant strides toward reproductive freedom for women while the United States slides backwards. Lindsay Langholz speaks with Julie Suk, author of "After Misogyny: How the Law Fails Women and What to Do About It," about how misogyny informs our legal system and our social structures.

Host: Lindsay Langholz, Senior Director of Policy and Program

Guest: Julie Suk, Hon. Deborah A. Batts Distinguished Research Scholar and Professor of Law, Fordham University School of Law
