nThe Supreme Court Justices have a highly respected job that they generally get to hold their whole life! (Of course, many choose to retire at some point.)
n
n
n
nAnd their names become famous, ranging from Wikipedia- famous to every-U.S.-history-book-famous to household-name-famous. (Or infamous!)
n
n
n
nBut I think that only one Supreme Court Justice has risen to the level of rock-star famous. Only one inspires jewelry and is enshrined on T-shirts!
n
n
n
n
n
n
n
n
n
n
nRuth Bader Ginsburg, born in Brooklyn, NY, on this date in 1933, has become a pop culture icon because her opinions and dissents have been stated so forcefully – people sometimes use the word “fiery” – and because she fights for “we the people.”
n
n
n
nBefore being appointed to the Supreme Court by President Bill Clinton, Ginsburg was a volunteer lawyer for the American Civil Liberties Union, and the ACLU has been hugely important in winning and defending civil rights.
n
n
n
nIf you want to eventually be featured on T-shirts and mugs, praised and thanked on SO many signs, and have your face inspire tattoos, Halloween costumes, a bobblehead doll, and so much more –
n
n
n
n
n
n
Can you tell which of these no-sew costumes is RBG? Of course you can! |
n
n
n
n
n
n
n
n
n
n– Well, you probably shouldn’t become a lawyer and hope for the best, because trajectory of “the Notorious R.B.G.” is probably never going to happen again!
n
n
n
n
n
(Ruth Bader Ginsburg’s pop culture nickname is “The Notorious R.B.G., in the likeness of American rapper “The Nortorious B.I.G.”) |
n
n
n
n
nI mean…”Dissent Jewelry”?
n
n

n
nA LEGO mini-fig?
n
n

nAppearing as someone under consideration for the X-Force?
