POPULARITY
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..
¿Cómo una abuelita judía que también es jueza de la corte se volvió tan famosa entre las generaciones más jóvenes? Para explicar esto, tuvimos el honor de platicar con la persona que la hizo viral durante el verano 2013. Para esto, decidí que necesitaba la ayuda de otra gran futura abogada, fan de RBG y amiga, Avril, quien nos acompaña como co host. Shana Knizhnik es abogada del personal de la práctica de defensa criminal de la Sociedad de Ayuda Legal en Manhattan. Mientras estudiaba en NYU Law, creó Notorious RBG Tumblr, un sitio web feminista dedicado a la juez Ruth Bader Ginsburg y su lucha de toda la vida por la igualdad y la justicia social. En 2015, coescribió el bestseller del New York Times, Notorious RBG: The Life and Times of Ruth Bader Ginsburg, con la periodista Irin Carmon, y fue nombrada para Forbes '30 Under 30 in Media en 2016. Después de graduarse cum laude de NYU Law en 2015 , Knizhnik se desempeñó como asistente legal de la Honorable Dolores Sloviter, Juez de la Corte de Apelaciones del Tercer Circuito de los Estados Unidos, y trabajó como asistente legal en la ACLU del Distrito de Columbia. Knizhnik tiene una licenciatura en ciencias políticas por la Universidad de Columbia.

You're passionate about the law, but in the 1960s and 1970s, the men around you don't think women belong in a courtroom. But you'll overcome sexism to show them that women belong wherever decisions are being made, and make a compelling case why gender inequality is wrong. Hosted by Rachel Bloom.

In this week's episode, Stefania tells Laura the story of RUTH BADER GINSBURG, a lawyer, professor, judge, and steadfast pioneer in the fight for gender equality under the law. She was the co-founder of the Women's Rights Project at the ACLU, and later spent 10 years on the U.S. Court of Appeals. In 1993, she became the second woman and 107th U.S. Supreme Court Justice, serving 27 years on the bench. Her unrelenting devotion to the pursuit of constitutional gender equality earned her the moniker: “the great dissenter” reading aloud from the bench, attempting to redirect the court's path, get the attention of congress, and address the courts of the future. This led her to become a legal and cultural phenomenon, with yet another moniker: “The Notorious RBG”. Born: March 15, 1933, Brooklyn, New York, U.S.A.; Died: September 18, 2020, Washington, D.C., U.S.A.

Cyndi loves this picture filled biography on Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg. Cyndi’s full review.
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.

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.
