    Summary: 
    To millions nationwide, American Congresswoman Maxine Waters is a hero of the resistance and an icon, serving eye rolls, withering looks, and sharp retorts to any who dare waste her time on nonsense. Throughout her forty years in public service and eighty years on earth, the U.S. Representative for California's 43rd district has been a role model, a crusader for justice, a game-changer, a trailblazer, and an advocate for the marginalized who has long defied her critics-- including her most vocal detractor, Donald J. Trump. Andrews-Dyer and Thomas pay tribute to Waters, with highlights from her personal life and political career in a funny, warm, and admiring portrait of a champion who refuses to stay silent in the face of corruption and injustice. -- adapted from publisher info
