The name “Ginsburg” is now fixed in the public consciousness. She was the second woman, the first Jewish woman, to serve on the United States Supreme Court. After her death due to cancer on September 18, 2020, the White House lowered its flag at half-mast in her honor. Before Ginsburg became a pop-culture icon, some liberals had called her out because of her advancing age and urged her to retire, hoping that Obama could appoint a younger liberal successor. However, Ginsburg refused to step down. Already in her eighties and after surviving two cancer diagnoses, she had become more gaunt than ever. However, she insisted on keeping her clothing and hair meticulous. The eyes under her glasses looked as steely and composed as ever. She never shyed away from boldly voicing her dissent whenever the court ruled in the conservatives' favour. She fought for equal citizenship privileges for minorities until the last moments of her life. Ginsburg's integrity, kindness, strength and courage have energized many. Ginsburg's fans affectionately called her “The Notorious R.B.G” as an homage to deceased rapper Christopher George Latore Wallace, better known as The Notorious B.I.G..

#NotoriousRBG is a unique phenomenon in American history. Only the second woman to serve on the US Supreme Court, she led the way, beginning in the 1970s, in pursuing legal remedies for discrimination against American women and girls. At the same time, she developed a singular public voice and presence; atypical of Supreme Court justices and, as such, becoming a widely, and wildly, iconic figure in pop culture. The biography by authors Irin Carmon and Shana Knizhnik, is a delightful combination of stories, images of mementos and photographs, and a serious account of her role in making legal history and a fairer world for every American woman.Irin Carmon joins us for this week’s #VoteHerIn podcast, a collaboration of Two Broads Talking Politics & author Rebecca Sive.

#BoycottAmazon has been trending on Twitter lately. Maybe you’ve seen the headlines about Amazon’s alleged unsustainable and unfair working conditions or grown concerned about the massive wealth chasm between the company’s founder and its 1.3 million employees.  Perhaps you’ve witnessed several mom and pop-owned businesses close their doors during the pandemic, while Amazon earned billions. You may be embarrassed about the amount of money you spend at the retail behemoth. Or maybe you just want to better support minority-owned businesses. Whatever the reason, you may be compelled to quit Amazon for good. Today’s episode interviews one New York City journalist and mom who’s given up her Amazon spending as best she can. Julie Scelfo officially kicked her Amazon habit in 2019 for “a combination of reasons,” she told me. Between the excessive packaging that made recycling a “part-time job,” the financial toll on mom-and-pop stores, and the overtime delivery teams suffered around the holidays to get Amazon packages to doorsteps, Scelfo had witnessed enough. The site was once her go-to for everything from laundry detergent to books, baby gifts, and kid clothes, but she banned it altogether. As an activist, this isn’t Scelfo’s first retail boycott. Several years ago, she gave up the Gap when she saw the clothing store monopolizing city street corners and edging out smaller shops. “I’ve always tried to spend my dollars in line with my values.” But, she admits, “it’s not so easy.” Listen to find out more about Julie’s reasons for banning Amazon, how she’s finding alternative vendors and how others can follow in her footsteps. More about Julie: She is a journalist, author and justice advocate who helps people discover the forces that help shape human thinking. Recently, she gave a TED Talk about how humans make meaning and why being “media savvy” — having an understanding how media works — is essential for parsing today’s cluttered information environment. Previously, Scelfo was a staff writer for The New York Times, where she wrote stories about how we live in contemporary American society that frequently ended up on the Times’s most-emailed list. Before joining the Times in 2007, Scelfo was a Correspondent at Newsweek where she covered breaking news, including the September 11, 2001 attack on the World Trade Center. Scelfo is most popularly known as the author of The Women Who Made New York (Seal Press/Hachette, 2016), a collection of intersectional biographies that reveal how it was women — and not just men — who built one of the world’s greatest cities. Irin Carmon described the book as “both a public service and a pleasure;” Maria Popova of Brain Pickings deemed it “rigorously researched and elegantly written.” Learn more about your ad choices.

Irin Carmon has been a journalist with NBC News, MSNBC, Jezebel, and New York Magazine.  She coauthored the Ruth Bader Ginsburg biography Notorious RBG and helped break the Charlie Rose accusations for The Washington Post.  She joins Heath to discuss the impact that RBG has had on how she co-parents her infant daughter, how the #MeToo and #BlackLivesMatter movements share similar characteristics that allowed them to get big when they did, and the importance of having good "information hygiene" as a citizen.

As the sun set for Rosh Hashanah this past Friday night, Jews in America and across the world learned of the death of Ruth Bader Ginsburg. It was like a gut punch, resounding across social media. The 87-year-old trailblazing Supreme Court Justice-- the second female Justice-- spent her entire career, her entire life really, fighting for equal rights for women and minorities, fighting so that everyone could have an equal shot. Her death, which plunges the country into a fight over exactly when, and by whom, she will be succeeded, is keenly felt by the Jewish community, who mourns her as a tzaddik, or righteous person.  Today you’re going to hear from Abigail Pogrebin, writer, friend of the show, and host of Tablet’s Parsha in Progress podcast. In 2005 she published a book called Stars of David: Prominent Jews Talk About Being Jewish. She has kindly agreed to read the chapter on Ruth Bader Ginsberg.  You can find Stars of David, and more of Abby’s work, including her latest book -- My Jewish Year: 18 Holidays; One Wondering Jew -- at https://abigailpogrebin.com/ For more RBG on Unorthodox, listen to episode 19, Leading Ladies, in which we interview Irin Carmon about her book, Notorious RBG, which details the Justice’s most recent turn as feminist pop culture icon. https://www.tabletmag.com/podcasts/unorthodox/leading-ladies We’re at work on our annual apology episode, which airs this Thursday, and which focuses on the notion of reconciliation, which, frankly, has never seemed so important.  Learn more about your ad choices.

This Summer we're reuniting with the stories of some of our favorite Rebel Girls. This week, Ruth Bader Ginsburg.Once upon a time, there was a girl with a mighty voice. Her name was Ruth Bader Ginsburg. Though she seemed quiet and shy, Ruth was brilliant with a quick mind and a big heart. When Ruth learned about lawyers who worked to ensure people were treated fairly, she dreamed of becoming one. She was determined to make the world a more equal place for women, men, immigrants, and people of color. And she did just that, first as a lawyer, and then as a judge. Ruth made history as a voice for oppressed people in America and as “The Great Dissenter” on the U.S. Supreme Court.About the Narrator:Priscilla Chan is co-founder of the Chan Zuckerberg Initiative.

A jury of seven men and five women meet today in New York Supreme Court to begin deliberations on whether to find disgraced movie mogul Harvey Weinstein guilty of sexual assault. The case has drawn international attention amid the #MeToo movement. If the jurors find Weinstein guilty, he faces a maximum sentence of life in prison. Weinstein has been accused of sexual misconduct by more than 100 women but in this case faces five charges based on evidence relating to two main accusers. One woman, who wishes to remain anonymous, alleges she was raped by Weinstein in a New York hotel, for which he has been charged with rape in the first and third degrees. The second main accuser is former “Project Runway” production assistant Miriam Haley, who alleges Weinstein forced oral sex on her in 2006. For this, Weinstein faces a count of criminal sex act. If the jury finds Weinstein guilty of the charges relating to either or both of the main accusers, then it can consider two counts of predatory sexual assault against him. We speak with Irin Carmon, a senior correspondent for New York magazine who has followed the allegations against Harvey Weinstein. She spoke with 21 of his accusers in her article “100 Women vs. Harvey Weinstein” and wrote about a 57-page PowerPoint Harvey Weinstein's team sent to reporters that smeared his alleged victims. Her new piece is headlined “The Woman Who Taped Harvey Weinstein.” The post Harvey Weinstein's Defense Team Is Waging a War Against the #MeToo Movement appeared first on KPFA.

Plus... journalism's role in sustaining democracy; an interview with two authors who offer a 'worm's-eye view' of Trumpworld; and Trump's former chief of staff critiques Fox News... Philip Bump, Joan Walsh, Anne Applebaum, Irin Carmon, Lachlan Markay, Asawin Suebsaeng, Julie K. Brown and Ken Doctor join Brian Stelter.

Plus, Trump's hypocrisy about anonymous sources; a British researcher shows how phones are changing news consumption; and a Harvard professor argues that America has "lost its mind." Irin Carmon, David Frum, Olivia Nuzzi, Carl Bernstein, Liz Mair, Damon De Ionno, and Thomas Patterson join Brian Stelter.

Donna and Rachel are friends who aren’t afraid to ask questions, laugh loudly, obsess freely and covet vintage items. The pair created the Smart Mouth Life Podcast to celebrate women who run their mouths and the world. Today's episode features journalist Irin Carmon, a Harvard alumna, a senior correspondent at New York Magazine and a CNN contributor. She is co-author with Shana Knizhnik of “Notorious RBG: The Life and Times of Ruth Bader Ginsburg.” In 2017 and 2018, Irin worked with Washington Post reporter Amy Brittain to break the news of sexual harassment and assault allegations against Charlie Rose. Previously, she was a reporter for MSCNBC, NBC News, Jezebel and Salon magazines.   

Will right-wing media protect Trump from conviction? What are the dangers of political ads on the web? Why do the president's mispellings matter?

I veckans Stil ska vi ägna oss åt en mäktig kvinna som blivit en lite otippad stilförebild, juristen Ruth Bader Ginsburg. Ruth Bader Ginsburg är sedan 25 år tillbaka en av de nio domare som sitter i USA:s allra högsta rättsliga instans, The Supreme Court, Högsta domstolen, som det har stormat mycket kring de senaste veckorna. Hon valdes in 1993 av den dåvarande presidenten Bill Clinton, och blev då den andra kvinnan någonsin på posten. Hennes insatser har varit betydande ifråga om att, till exempel, få till stånd den lagändring som möjliggör samkönade äktenskap i alla amerikanska delstater.  Men under senare år har hon blivit både känd och folkkär på ett sätt som andra domare aldrig någonsin tidigare varit. Hon kallas av sina fans som många är unga millenials uppskattande för The Notorious R.B.G och porträtteras ofta, likt rapparen Notorious B.I.G, med en krona på huvudet.  Nyligen fyllde Ruth Bader Ginsburg 85 år, och är därmed äldst i Högsta domstolen. Men det har inte fått henne att slå av på takten, snarare tvärtom. För även om hon till storleken påminner om en liten sparv är det är inte direkt någon spröd tant med risk för att bryta lårbenshalsen vi talar om. I veckans program träffar vi journalisten Irin Carmon, en av författarna till boken Notorious R.B.G. Vi pratar också med juridikprofessorn Mårten Schultz och juristen och journalisten Anna Wetterqvist om bilden av juristen på film och i verkligheten. Och så tar vi en närmare titt på komedifilmen Legally Blonde.  Veckans gäst är Britt-Marie Mattsson, journalist och författare. Programmet är en repris från 4 maj 2018.

From #MeToo to Brett Kavanaugh, we have a lot to be mad about. Rebecca Traister is back to discuss her new book exploring the social and historical power of women's anger. When women get angry, movements form and revolutions spark. See: Rosa Parks, Florynce Kennedy, Maxine Waters, and many more sheroes. We discuss rage-crying, the specific history of white women's tears, the lasting impact of Professor Anita Hill, and who has room to express their rage today. No wonder we're told to keep our anger to ourselves. Reading List: Good and Mad: The Revolutionary Power of Women’s Anger by Rebecca Traister is on sale now. For smart thoughts and links on Kavanaugh, we turn to Rebecca Traister, Irin Carmon, Jenée Desmond Harris, Laura McGann, Brittany Packnett Go deeper with books by and about these incredible angry feminists: Flo Kennedy: her public access show archive Vivian Gornick: all of her books Rosa Parks: At the Dark End of the Street Anita Hill: Strange Justice Rose Schneiderman: her 1911 speech at the Metropolitan Opera House after the Triangle Shirtwaist Factory fire

If you have never heard of Ruth Bader Ginsburg (a.k.a. RBG), I am not sure what rock you have been living under these days. This vignette of #InVinoFab will give you a quick rundown of relevant resources and links to learn more about Justice Ginsburg's life and contributions she has made for society. Let's just say you: “Can't Spell Truth Without Ruth.”RBG's describes her understanding of feminism to be that we all must be “free to be you and me”(Carmon & Knizhnik, 2015, p. 91). Also, I can say that Ruth is one lady that does not give up and DOES THE WORK! After watching the RBG documentary and reading the Notorious RBG book, I am reminded that it takes time, patience, dedication, and strategy to move the needle for feminist issues. As Justice Bader Ginsburg says: “...one doesn't learn that lesson in a day. Generally, change in our society is incremental, I think.L Real change enduring change, happens one step at a time” (Carmon & Knizhnik, 2015, pp. 60). Additionally we discussed the power of supportive and equal life partnerships that change and challenge roles in the workplace, family, and society.  Here are few RBG & other things we chatted about in this short pod episode:--How Ruth Bader Ginsburg Became the “Notorious RBG” https://www.rollingstone.com/politics/news/how-ruth-bader-ginsburg-became-the-notorious-rbg-20151027--The Notorious RBG Tumblr Website: http://notoriousrbg.tumblr.com/ --Notorious RBG Book http://notoriousrbg.tumblr.com/book by Irin Carmon & Shana Knizhnik--5 things to know about the 'Notorious RBG' in honor of her 25th year on the Supreme Court https://abcnews.go.com/Politics/things-notorious-rbg-honor-25th-year-supreme-court/story?id=55903950--It was adorable to watch RBG see Kate McKinnon play her in an SNL skit, for example: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XhzSd-Kz-zA --Sheryl Sandberg Says Marry a Supportive Partner.

Amanda and Jenn discuss baby shower books, true crime, short stories on audio, and more in this week's episode of Get Booked. This episode is sponsored by The Vale by Brian D. Anderson and A Girl Like That by Tanaz Bhathena.   Questions 1. Details: My mom is throwing me a book-themed baby shower which I am very excited about. She wants to give all the guests a book as part of the party favors. The guest list is an interesting mix of people; men and women will be there, but most of the guests will be women over 40 with a handful of people my own age (I'll be 30 when the shower happens). The men who will be there like Game of Thrones, but some like video games and comic books while others like military stories. I don't want my mom to spend too much on books, so I'm thinking paperbacks are the way to go. Question: Do you have any suggestions for books that can appeal to pretty much anyone? Or something for the men and something else for the women? Thank you, --Channell   2. Hey Ladies, This has been a wonderful week for me because I saw Black Panther TWICE and I just finished my second reading of "The Wedding Date" by Jasmine Guillory . And I'm realizing I'd love your help in finding some new books, especially books that center black characters as joyful and thriving and not always dealing with the "struggle" of being black. Black Panther showed this amazingly beautiful world where black people are smart and strong. The Wedding Date was a story about a black woman who is desired, loved, and respected in her budding relationship with a white man. As a black women, I'm realizing that I need more books like "The Wedding Date" because I'm weary of books and movies that center the narrative around the hardships of being black. I'd love to see if you can suggest some books like "The Wedding Date". I'd love more chick lit with a black woman protagonist and extra points for multi-racial interracial relationships. In the past I've loved Nana Malone and Theodora Taylor. I've also read "Black Rainbow" by J.J. McAvoy I'm open to fantasy with black female protagonists too, just as long as there's a love story involved, too. --Whitney   3. I realized after listening to a few podcasts (Serial, Murder on Orchard Street, Dirty John), and watching TV shows (Making a Murderer) that I love True Crime. It is genre that I have never read before. Would love some recommendations. Thank you for this awesome show! --andrea   4. Hi Get Booked folks! I recently discovered your podcast and love listening to it on my drive. My TBR is getting uber long, which is great since I've got an extended holiday coming up in Nov and again in Dec! I've recently discovered dystopian and/or post-apocalyptic novels, and have to say I'm totally in love. Some of my favorites are Oryx and Crake, Brave New World, Wind-Up Girl, Water Knife, Handmaid's Tale, 1984, and right now I'm reading An Excess Male. I would love some recommendations that fall along those lines. --Neelam   5. Hi ladies! In the years since I graduated college, I’ve tried to make a concerted effort to continue educating myself. I’m particularly interested in women’s and gender studies, social justice issues, and using history to inform our current political moment. The problem is I’m finding it very difficult to get through the nonfiction books I’m picking up. I do most of my reading during my commute or lunch break, whenever I can fit it in. But when I’ve tried reading nonfiction in short bursts like this, I’ve found that I don’t retain anything I’ve read. I’ve tried books of essays (most recently Roxane Gay’s Bad Feminist) and had more success, but the segmented nature makes it hard to keep up momentum; I’ll finish an essay, put the book down, and not return to it for weeks. So, I’m looking for suggestions for narrative nonfiction that will keep me more easily engaged. Any help is much appreciated! --Teresa   6. Hi. I want to read more books about and/or written by POC. I love fiction, YA, and sometimes non-fiction. No graphic novels please. I love books about culture and every day day. I also love fantasy and magic. Mostly I just want to expand my library to include POC, different cultures, and life through a different perspective. --Jessica   7. Thanks for the awesome recommendations on your podcast; I would like to "read" more audiobooks, but they don't fit well into my current lifestyle. I'm thinking that short story collections on audiobook would be a good way to go. Do you have any recommendations? --Kristin   Books Discussed Mem by Bethany C Morrow (May 22 2018) Down Among the Sticks and Bones by Seanan McGuire The Little Prince by Antoine de Saint-Exupery Name That Movie by Paul Rogers The Awesome Girl’s Guide to Dating Extraordinary Men by Ernessa T Carter (rec’d by Jamie C) Bingo Love by Tee Franklin and Jenn St. Onge The Red Parts by Maggie Nelson I’ll Be Gone In The Dark by Michelle McNamara (recommended by Liberty), trigger warnings: rape and murder The Power by Naomi Alderman (trigger warning: sexual violence) Brown Girl in the Ring by Nalo Hopkinson Notorious RBG by Irin Carmon, Shana Knizhnik In The Country We Love by Diane Guerrero and Michelle Burford (tw: self harm, discussion of suicide) When Dimple Met Rishi by Sandhya Menon The Bone Witch by Rin Chupeco Sherlock Holmes Back Talk: Stories by Danielle Lazarin (rec from Katie on the Audiobooks newsletter) Post: Short story audiobooks

Tiffany Bluhm, author of the Never Alone book and Bible study, is a speaker and writer who is passionate about helping women come to know their value and purpose because of a loving, redeeming God. In a style that speaks to women right where they are, she shares insights from a life spent chasing after Jesus while walking alongside women from suburbia to the inner city, jails and brothels, and the slums of Kolkata. Tiffany speaks regularly at conferences and events, and writes for several websites, print publications, and popular blogs, including the YouVersion Bible app. She lives in Tacoma, Washington, with her husband and two sons, and blogs at TiffanyBluhm.com. In this interview, Tiffany helps us dump the mom-guilt that can come with trying to balance dreaming, raising kids, and caring for a home and a husband. Instead she talks about making the most of our time, asking for help when we need it, and how not to miss out on the dream God's put on your heart—even if you feel too busy to pursue it. Her advice to the dreamer, near the end of our conversation, about finding someone who's already doing your dream was priceless. You won't want to miss it!

For 510 days, NBC News Correspondent Katy Tur reported on Republican Nominee Donald Trump. She visited forty states with the candidate and made over 3,800 live television reports. Over the course of the year and a half, Trump taunted Tur incessantly, transforming her into a prominent figure in the presidential campaign. As Tur was singled out, colleagues rallied around her and thousands tweeted their support with #ImWithTur. Katy Tur—who recently received a Walter Cronkite Award for Excellence—joins the Brennan Center and Irin Carmon, co-author of Notorious R.B.G., to reflect on her unexpected time in the spotlight and the fascinating, highly controversial world of the 2016 Trump Campaign.

This week, the Supreme Court handed the abortion-rights movement a major victory in its Whole Woman’s Health v. Hellerstedt decision. Irin Carmon, MSNBC reporter and author of the bestseller “The Notorious RBG," joins the show to discuss the implications of the decision, and the future of the Court. Also this week, the conclusion of the House’s Benghazi investigation is the latest reminder of the paranoia and hucksterism running through conservative politics. New Republic senior editor Jeet Heer explains how Donald Trump is exploiting this weakness to run the greatest political scam of all time.

In Showdown: Thurgood Marshall and the Supreme Court Nomination That Changed America, Wil Haygood, author of The Butler, delivers the definitive biography of the man who, as a lawyer, won a string of landmark Supreme Court cases that dismantled Jim Crow and later became a towering figure on the Court himself. As a lawyer, Ruth Bader Ginsburg was often called the Thurgood Marshall of the women’s movement, and like him she has gone on to become a Supreme Court icon. But lately there has been a 21st-century twist: thanks to the Notorious R.B.G. Tumblr developed by Shana Knizhnik, she is now also an Internet meme. That celebratory spirit suffuses Notorious RBG: The Life and Times of Ruth Bader Ginsburg by Knizhnik and Irin Carmon. Join us for an illuminating look at two extraordinary justices delivered by three very original biographers with a gift for portraiture. Hosted by WBUR’s Anthony Brooks.

On this week's episode: America’s most badass Supreme Court Justice and TV’s most visible rabbi.   Our Jewish guest is MSNBC reporter Irin Carmon, whose new book, Notorious RBG: The Life and Times of Ruth Bader Ginsburg, is a smart, entertaining biography of the Supreme Court justice. She tells us about RBG’s recent turn as a feminist pop culture icon, her important role on the Supreme Court today, and the octogenarian’s impressive workout routine.   Our non-Jewish guest is actress Kathryn Hahn, who tells us what it’s like to regularly play Jewish characters (see: Transparent, Afternoon Delight, How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days). She explains how she prepared for her latest role as Rabbi Raquel Fein on Jill Soloway’s Amazon hit Transparent, which returns Friday for Season 2. She asks the panel about Judaism’s earliest female rabbis.   Our next episode will be a live taping on Dec. 15 at 7 p.m. at the Washington DC JCC, in Washington, D.C.

on the one year anniversary of the non-indictment over the murder of Eric Garner, we speak to his mother Gwen Carr. Though the NYPD's murder of Eric Garner by chokehold was captured on video and his death ruled a homicide by medical examiners, a grand jury decided to not even indict the policeman (or men) responsible. We talk about Garner's life and his death, and how it turned Carr into an activist. Gwen also explains what justice means for her and her thoughts on the recent killing of Laquan McDonald. We also speak to MSNBC reporter Irin Carmon about the Planned Parenthood shooting and her new book on Ruth Bader Ginsburg, Notorious RBG.

In this special phone-a-friend edition of Call Your Girlfriend, Aminaou talks to Irin Carmon, co-author of The Notorious RBG: The Life and Times of Ruth Bader Ginsburg.

A recent Law & Human Behavior study found that female lawyers are penalized for displaying anger. It may explain why Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg chose to picked her battles from the get go. Considering she’s successfully advocated for gender equality, among other civil liberties, since 1959, her tactics paid off. Instead of getting angry, she got even. Ruth Bader Ginsburg continues to be one of our nation's greatest social justice crusaders. Still her career hasn't shielded her from personal and professional trials and tragedy. Ginsburg dealt with losing her beloved mother the day before she graduated from high school. Her late husband Marty faced his first battle with cancer while the two were still in school and recently married. Despite being number one in her class at Columbia, Ginsburg could get arrested before she could get hired. Not one New York law firm, not to mention then Justice Felix Frankfurter, would hire, as Ginsburg says, a Jewish female with a young daughter. Luckily, she kept her eyes...

Hanna Rosin, June Thomas, and Noreen Malone discuss the new book about Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg "The Notorious RBG" with authors Irin Carmon and Shana Knizhinik, whether we can call male politicians hot, and Jonathan Franzen and women.
