on our local NPR station with V (Eve Enssler) about her new book, Reckoning. She is the author of the Vagina Monologues and founder of V-Day, the global activist movement to end violence against women, gender expansive people, girls and the planet. The interview was very compelling and passionate.

The interview can be found here:
