Praise for Bad Law : "Elie Mystal offers a searing, deeply analytical but accessible critique of the prevailing legal regimes in the U.S., which are vestiges of the racism and misogyny that define much of our country's history. Using the wit and insight he has become known for in his writing and commentary, Mystal makes the compelling case that there is a profound disconnect between the laws that we have and the laws that we need and want. Anyone who supports achieving a truly pluralistic, multiracial democracy in this nation should take this analysis seriously." --Russ Feingold, former U.S. senator and president of the American Constitution Society "Elie Mystal is a grassroots legal superhero, and his superpower is the ability to explain to the masses in clear language the all-too-human forces at play behind the making of our laws. In Bad Law , Mystal also speaks as an irreverent Moses throwing down on the Ten Commandments of Lousy Laws, replacing 'Thou Shalt Not' with 'Should Not Be,' since this legislation should no longer be on the books or on our backs. Thank God this brilliant and angry prophet doesn't stutter as he tosses these laws into a burning bush of common sense that fuels the common good." --Michael Eric Dyson, university distinguished professor, Vanderbilt University, and New York Times bestselling author of Tears We Cannot Stop "Nobody can break down the legal systems shaping America today better than Elie Mystal. With the wit of Chris Rock and clarity of Jay-Z, Mystal explains how these laws contribute to systemic inequality, political corruption, societal stagnation and most importantly what must be done to challenge and reform them." --Charlamagne tha God, radio host of The Breakfast Club and New York Times bestselling author "Sure, a theocratic Supreme Court and Trump concierge legislatures are turning hate and bias into 'laws,' but at least Elie Mystal is here in Bad Law to warn and explain with clarity and humor--while humor is still legal." --Keith Olbermann, sports and political commentator and writer, Praise for Bad Law : "Bad Law cuts through the noise of left-wing infighting to serve as an actionable guide to meaningful change." --Publishers Weekly "A smart, big-picture takedown of the legal bulwarks of white supremacism and its privileges." --Kirkus Reviews "Elie Mystal offers a searing, deeply analytical but accessible critique of the prevailing legal regimes in the U.S., which are vestiges of the racism and misogyny that define much of our country's history.

Synopsis
In this New York Times bestseller, Elie Mystal offers a brilliant takedown of ten shocking pieces of legislation that continue to perpetuate hate, racial bias, injustice, and inequality today--an urgent yet hopeful read for our current political climate "Mystal is a grassroots legal superhero, and his superpower is the ability to explain to the masses in clear language the all-too-human forces at play behind the making of our laws." --Michael Eric Dyson, New York Times bestselling author of Tears We Cannot Stop In Bad Law, the New York Times bestselling author of Allow Me To Retort: A Black Guy's Guide to the Constitution reimagines what our legal system, and society at large, could look like if we could move past legislation plagued by racism, misogyny, and corruption. Through accessible yet detailed prose and trenchant wit, Mystal argues that these egregiously awful laws--his "Bill of Wrongs"--continue to cause systematic and individual harm and should be repealed completely. By exposing the flawed foundations of the rules we live by, and through biting humor and insight, Bad Law offers a crisp, pertinent take on: abortion and the Hyde Amendment, and the role federal funding, or lack thereof, has played in depriving women of necessary health and reproductive care immigration and illegal reentry, and the illusions that have been sold to us regarding immigration policy, reform, and whiteness at large voter registration laws, and how the right to vote has become a moral issue, and ironically, antidemocratic gun control and the Protection of Lawful Commerce in Arms Act, and the extreme yet obvious dangers of granting immunity to gun manufacturers But, as the man Samantha Bee calls "irrepressible and righteously indignant" and Matt Levine of Bloomberg Opinion calls "the funniest lawyer in America," points out, these laws do not come to us from on high; we write them, and we can and should unwrite them. In a fierce, funny, and wholly original takedown spanning all the hot-button topics in the country today, one of our most brilliant legal thinkers points the way to a saner tomorrow., In this New York Times bestseller, Elie Mystal offers a brilliant takedown of ten shocking pieces of legislation that continue to perpetuate hate, racial bias, injustice, and inequality today--an urgent yet hopeful read for our current political climate "Mystal is a grassroots legal superhero, and his superpower is the ability to explain to the masses in clear language the all-too-human forces at play behind the making of our laws." --Michael Eric Dyson, New York Times bestselling author of Tears We Cannot Stop In Bad Law , the New York Times bestselling author of Allow Me To Retort: A Black Guy's Guide to the Constitution reimagines what our legal system, and society at large, could look like if we could move past legislation plagued by racism, misogyny, and corruption.
