Show Notes

Listen to former CBS News correspondent Julianna Goldman's first Moms Don't Have Time to Read Books interview as she talks with author Allison Gilbert about her latest book, Listen, World!, which she co-wrote with Julia Scheeres. Allison shares how she first discovered the book's subject, columnist Elsie Robinson, the shortcomings of history curriculums around the country when it comes to teaching about women, and some of the most inspiring stories from Elsie's life. Julianna and Allison also discuss how we can all embody Elsie's confidence and self-sufficiency and what she would likely have to say about our current world today.
