Suzanne Lang talks with activist and author Alice Rothchild, whose own feminist enlightenment was gained by persevering through a male dominated medical field to become an OB/GYN who reshaped women’s health through her subsequent work. She tells her story, in  Inspired and Outraged, the Making of a Feminist Physician, a memoir in free verse.

Also featured is Susan Muaddi Darraj with her novel Behind You is the Sea, a story of the Palestinian diaspora set in a Palestinian American community in Baltimore.
