Attorney and author Sarah Vogel is a North Dakota farm advocate. As a young lawyer in the 1980s, she brought a national class action lawsuit, pitting her against the Department of Justice in her fight for family farmers' Constitutional rights. In her 2021 book, The Farmer's Lawyer: The North Dakota Nine and the Fight to Save the Family Farm, she tells the story of this legal battle and the family farmers she advocated for. Vogel will visit the Main Library on Wednesday, July 6, at 7 p.m. to share her experiences and explain what prompted her to write the story. Books will be available for purchase.
