Mindful Return's December Book Talk: Just Pursuit
About The Webinar
When Laura Coates joined the Department of Justice as a prosecutor, she wanted to advocate for the most vulnerable among us. But she quickly realized that even with the best intentions, “the pursuit of justice creates injustice.” Coates’s experiences show that no matter how fair you try to fight, being Black, a woman, and a mother are identities often at odds in the justice system.
Join CNN Anchor and New York Times Bestselling author, Laura Coates, for a conversation with Lori Mihalich-Levin about her book and her career journey. During the conversation, we'll talk about:
Intersections Between Our Professional Roles and Our Values
Through Laura's own personal stories, we learn how the enormous power of a prosecutor intersects with issues of race, gender, class and other forms of bias.
Social Justice Work
How we grapple on a daily basis with systemic problems that have no easy solutions.
Working Parenthood as a Bestselling Author & CNN Anchor
Laura's own personal experiences integrating life as a working mom of two young children with a high-profile career.
