Nurses have taken the lead in the wave of this year’s labor activism.

Other nurses threatened strikes in half a dozen other places. Bryce Covert reports a key front in the fight for better health care in America.Plus: Dahlia Lithwick talks about some of the heroes of the Trump years: the women lawyers who fought him on the big issues—the Muslim ban, neo-Nazis in Charlottesville, and voting rights. Her new book is “Lady Justice.”Subscribe to The Nation to support all of our podcasts: thenation.com/podcastsubscribe.
