Ruth Bader Ginsberg
Ruth Bader Ginsburg spent a lifetime flourishing in the face of
adversity before being appointed a Supreme Court justice,
where she successfully fought against gender discrimination
and unified the liberal block of the court.
Ruth Bader Ginsburg began her career as a justice where she
left off as an advocate, fighting for women’s rights. In 1996,
Ginsburg wrote the majority opinion in United States v.
Virginia, holding that qualified women could not be denied
admission to Virginia Military Institute. Her style in advocating
from the bench matches her style from her time at the ACLU:
slow but steady,and calculated. Instead of creating
sweeping limitations on gender discrimination, she attacked
specific areas of discrimination and violations of women’s
rights one at a time, so as to send a message to the
legislatures on what they can and cannot do. Her attitude is
that major social change should not come from the courts,
but from Congress and other legislatures.
