Notorious RBG! "Be a Lady, Be Independent"

What an amazing person, starting from scratch to promote the American gender awareness awakening in the 70s and a series of adjustments involving sex discrimination laws.

"Gender can't be a standard in itself, otherwise, women are next-class, they are considered natural fit to stay in the home and the kitchen" "We are not trying to fight for more power for women, but to trample men on women Move the foot off my neck" In the film, Ginsburg pushes VMI (Virginia Military Institute) to recruit female students. The first batch of girls admitted to VMI said that they represented a gender group, and they wanted to prove that this group was no better than another group. inferior.

At the same time, Ginsburg fought for a family pension for single fathers, which at the time only women could receive, showing how gender inequality hurts both men and women, and what her affirmative action was all about.

"The boundaries drawn by gender are like a cage." Ginsburg is using diligent work and excellent wisdom to dismantle this cage little by little. Facing the incomprehension of privileged white men, she continues to be a lady:

"I'm not angry. They don't understand the status of women and minorities. I have to be patient with them like a kindergarten teacher."

As a liberal, she can seek common ground with conservatives, "Of course I like to be the majority, but when there is a need for a dissident, I must stand up", bold and sober.

Her success is also inseparable from the support of her husband. This is a beautiful and exemplary relationship between the sexes. "I like her because she is smart." At the time, girls didn't have to be smart, or even smart, but Marty supported Ginsberg. Grid attended Harvard Law School and campaigned for her Supreme Court nomination. A serious and calm, humorous and enthusiastic, mutual understanding and supportive love gives the justice great energy.

A great icon, a great pioneer.
