RGB's legacy, and why girls rule
The death of Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg has ignited a political firestorm that unfortunately clouds what should be a celebration of her life, her accomplishments, and what America has accomplished in her lifetime.
I agreed with comments by both Joe Biden and President Donald Trump after her passing, as noted by CNN last Saturday, especially when Biden said people should focus on her enduring legacy.
Today I want to focus on that legacy, beginning with her remark as quoted by CNN, where else [but in] America could [her rise from a furrier and garment workers daughter in Brooklyn to the Supreme Court] happen.
Oyez.org, a multi-media archive of the Supreme Court, noted, After graduation [from Cornell top of her class in 1954] she put her education on hold to start a family. She had her first child in 1955, shortly after her husband was drafted for two years of military service. Upon her husbands return from his service, Ginsburg enrolled at Harvard Law.
