Gina Miller – Rise

- Gina Miller
Gina Miller discusses her memoir, Rise, which recounts her lifelong fight against injustice.
Miller came to prominence when she brought one of the most significant constitutional cases ever to be heard in the British Supreme Court. She successfully challenged the UK government’s authority to trigger Article 50 – the formal notification to leave the European Union – without parliamentary approval. For standing up for what she believed was right, Miller became the target of not just racist and sexist verbal abuse, but physical threats to herself and her family.
Rise looks at the moments that made her; the trauma, failures and successes that gave her the confidence in her voice, the ability to know how to use it and the strength not to let others diminish it, even when it came at incredible cost.
