Earthbound Spirit said...: Holding Justice Ginsburg in the light... As a very young woman, I read a text she wrote on constitutional law and women's rights that was so crucial to my formation as a feminist. One more woman who made a big difference in a lot of people's lives...; 2/06/2009 9:32 AM
Paul said...: Thank you all.

Earthbound Spirit, I thank you for that personal perspective. It is so easy to view "important" figures from afar with all their symbolic trappings and forget about the very specific, personal effect they have on our lives. By your witness we are linked a little closer to this great woman.; 2/06/2009 11:14 PM
