On this edition of Road Gang Radio, hosts Jimmy Mac and Lindsay Lawler welcome Judith Pearson (Judy), author of the new book RADICAL SISTERS: Shirley Temple Black, Rose Kushner, Evelyn Lauder and the Dawn of the Breast Cancer Movement, with a foreword by Nancy G. Brinker. 

Publishing September 16, 2025, the book chronicles the courageous women who transformed the conversation about breast cancer and launched a movement that continues to save lives.

In this interview, Judy shares:

The healing power of helping others after trauma — what she calls finding the treasure in life’s wreckage.

Her hopes for what Radical Sisters will accomplish in today’s conversation about breast cancer.

Why this book is so important now.

What the future might hold for breast cancer treatment and advocacy.

Radical Sisters is more than history — it’s a call to action and a reminder that change begins with brave voices.
