Bella Abzug: “How One Tough Broad From the Bronx Fought Jim Crow and Joe McCarthy, Pissed Off Jimmy Carter, Battled for the Rights of Women and Workers, Rallied Against War and for the Planet, and Shook Up Politics Along the Way.”
Review in The Nation here. Via Law Poet.
Bella Abzug was my earliest living political hero. I once got to meet her in person, at the 1980 Democratic Convention, and it remains a great memory (enshrined in a yellowing photo I’ve got in a shoebox somewhere).
