Although RBG is gone, we can still protect her spiritual wealth

After RBG passed away, I watched this movie to get to know her. I didn't expect some simple plots and lines to cry when I saw them, because there was really empathy.

In the past few years, as a woman, I have encountered too many similar things, and everyone basically endured it silently and criticized it for nothing. Just a few days ago, I came across a job posting saying that only men are needed, because a woman has already been hired... This is exactly the same as the line in the movie: "They said they had already hired a woman, why do they still hire a woman? What about a woman?" There are too many things like this, and every time I ask "why", everyone wants to look at me like an idiot, saying that you are too sensitive, saying that women are in some ways It's not as good as a man, saying that it has always been like this, this is a social rule. But I really want to change these rules, I want to get rid of these constraints, and let my mother and the sisters around me also get rid of the injustice they have been subjected to as women, resist violence against women, and resist "Women should be virtuous and worthy." Dress yourself up" stereotype, resist employment discrimination in the name of "for your own good"...

RBG did it, she's been working hard, her results have inspired so many women, and she's a true icon. I really want to follow her spirit and do more for gender equality, for myself and for future generations. May you rest in peace.
