Ginsburg was fortunate to have met a life partner during Cornell's time, a serious silent, a humorous talker, who admired her mind, and she admired his personality.
Ginsburg said that when he was in college, this boy would actually see if the other person had a brain. In the male-dominated society of the 1940s in the United States, this kind of thinking was very rare. After all, subordination, dependence, and housewife were the key words to describe women in that era; after all, at that time, the 9 justices in the Supreme Court of the United States were all men; after all, even a woman who graduated from Harvard Law School was Can't find a law firm job.
And in the later Clinton period, her husband still used his personal connections to tell Ginsburg's succession to the justices, and was proud of his wife.
Ginsburg is also exceptionally focused. During college, her husband had cancer. She was busy with her studies during the day, and at night came home to help her husband organize his notes and take care of the children. She only slept 2 hours a day. Even in her later work, she almost never watched TV and spent most of her time at work. This kind of high-intensity concentration and decades of perseverance will make her what she is today.
Even after her husband died, she was back at work the day after her death. When it comes to retirement, she says she'll do it until she can't.
Finally, talk about her achievement, which is gender equality. In the past, even in today's society, this gender difference still exists:
1. Women are paid less than men for the same job;
2. A certain school only admits male students;
3. The government only gives relief to widows, not to widowers. Yes, gender stereotypes exist in both men and women.
4. Oppose female abortion...
She has a particularly classic line of argument: I don't expect women to get preferential treatment, I just want to remove the foot that is on a woman's neck. As a representative of the liberals, if a woman has to rely on others to control her reproductive rights, how can she control her own life, so she supports women's reproductive freedom.
The documentary shows a lot of the beauty and achievements of Justice Ginsburg: calm, professional, serious, focused, liberal representation.
Another moving point is the background of Ginsburg's first time as a justice. At that time, the president of the United States glanced at the nine Supreme Court justices and said that they were all white men like me, which was inappropriate, so Women and minorities were introduced. I fully understand and agree, because the feelings between people are often not the same, a white male cannot understand that a woman will appeal her salary difference after several years, because the difference is always not so easy to detect; A white man can't understand women's control over abortion, because it's a woman's own life.
Finally, equality and freedom are also two points in the core values of socialism, which will make society better. Although it is not a one-step beauty, it must be a step-by-step beauty, because stereotypes often limit the development of human beings.
