I don’t think I’ve ever felt this down in the dumps about something regarding this. I am truly concerned and scared now for our country.

It’s scary. Everything what was accomplished in civil rights and women rights and minorities rights could slowly head to a dumpster

Hope and pray for the best

She was courageous, determined, a warrior. An inspiration!
z"l - may her memory be for a blessing.

A truly amazing legendary woman. Gone too soon.

I have never been as profoundly affected by the death of a Supreme Court Justice as I am with her.

She was an amazing person. She will be greatly missed. But I believe what she achieved will remain and will inspire people for a very long time.

Don't lose heart! She wouldn't want you to feel down about this. She lived a very full and productive life!

Muster all of your energy, and whatever it takes to accomplish it, make sure you vote!!! THAT is what she stood for, that and so much more.

Make her proud!

The other day, my sister encouraged me to watch RBG on Netflix and said she is one of the reasons why I was able to get an AFROTC slot in the military. I would be up a creek right now without my VA health benefits. Hope to watch RBG soon. Thank you Justice Ginsburg!

Definitely watch it!

My friend and I watched it at the movie theater when it came out. We also went to see On The Basis of Sex, feature movie about RBG’s young years. Wasn’t as good as documentary but we still really liked it. Actual Ruth Ginsburg made an appearance at the end, before credits.

My friend is a lawyer, newly retired after 35 years of practice in a county court system. She says that RBG paved the way for women lawyers. Many would never go into law if not Justice Ginsburg
