About the Episode
In her latest profile, journalist and author Rebecca Traister examines the five-decade career of Senator Dianne Feinstein -- from San Francisco to the U.S. Senate, where she is still a voting member at 88. Traister joins Michel Martin to discuss how, in her words, “the generation whose entry into politics was enabled by progressive reforms has allowed those victories to be taken away.”
