Last June we watched as the landscape of our entire country changed for a generation. Next June, readers will see in full for the first time how it all happened in “The Fall of Roe” by Elizabeth Dias and Lisa Lerer.
As the National Political Correspondent for The New York Times, Lisa Lerer has covered American politics, power, and elections for nearly two decades. She has chronicled five presidential campaigns, the White House, Congress and innumerable state and local elections. The second woman to ever be named to that post, her work has paid particular attention to how liberal female political activists transformed American politics over the past five years.
Elizabeth Dias, the National Religion Correspondent for The New York Times, has covered American religion and its politics for more than a decade, with a special focus on the surging power and grievance of conservative Christianity that drives the Trump movement. Her sourcing among the Catholic and evangelical powerbrokers and grassroots of the anti-abortion movement is unparalleled. She is a Livingston finalist and received the top awards in 2021 from the Religion News Association.
Together Elizabeth and Lisa have chronicled the changing landscape of abortion in America over the past decade, joining their unique specialties on the right and left to paint the most comprehensive coverage of abortion politics. Now, they bring that expertise to the issue that affects tens of millions of American mothers and families: the Fall of Roe.
