Sunday Morning Post (V.2, #37) - The Wonderful/Notorious RBG

This will be a short entry this week, just a small tribute to a remarkable American.

We lost Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsberg this past week.  This was not the ending for which we had hoped.  We progressives knew she was sick and hoped that her indomitable fighting spirit would see her through for a few more months until after the election.  The cosmos, fate, whatever had other ideas and took her before we could get to Election Day/Week.

Today we can mourn and at the same time be grateful that her suffering is over.  We can be grateful for her accomplishments in the name of women’s and civil rights.  We can remember her struggles as we continue the fight against injustice.

There is not much more to say other than Rest In Peace.

(Thank you as always for reading.)

I don't know if people understand yet, but in death she has become our standard bearer.

Very true, Debra.

Thank you, Bob. RBG was one of a kind.

Thank you, Spo. I couldn't think of any other way to express my thoughts.

People will come around eventually, Dave R.
