Notorious RBG: Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg's Impact on American Culture
Justice Ginsburg has been called the "Thurgood Marshall of the Women's Movement," for her success in winning Supreme Court gender equality cases. One constitutional expert considers her "simply the most important woman lawyer in the history of the republic". Still, it was Ginsburg's disgusted dissents against conservative Supreme Court decisions that made her "notorious RBG," an Internet icon at 80. Join us for a look at the media and Internet dimension of her fame, and at the achievements through which she helped to create a more equal and just society.
Marcia Midler returns to share the milestones in the life and career of this history-making Jewish Supreme Court Justice.
