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. The views and opinions of the speakers in the podcast do not necessarily reflect those of the Aspen Institute.
