Ruth Bader Ginsburg: A Pioneer for Gender Equality
Ruth Bader Ginsburg was born in Brooklyn, New York, in 1933. She graduated from Columbia Law School in 1959 and went on to teach law at Rutgers University and Columbia University. In 1980, she was appointed to the Supreme Court by President Jimmy Carter, becoming the second woman to serve on the Court.
Ginsburg was a pioneer for gender equality. She was a leading advocate for the Equal Rights Amendment and for laws prohibiting discrimination on the basis of sex. She also wrote several landmark opinions on gender discrimination, including the majority opinion in the 1996 case United States v. Virginia, which struck down the Virginia Military Institute's male-only admissions policy.
Ginsburg was a liberal justice who often dissented from the Court's conservative majority. However, she was also known for her ability to build consensus and find common ground with her colleagues. She was a respected and admired figure both on and off the Court.
The Death of Ruth Bader Ginsburg
Ruth Bader Ginsburg died on September 18, 2020, at the age of 87. She had been battling pancreatic cancer for several years. Her death was a major loss for the Supreme Court and the country.
Ginsburg's death left a vacancy on the Court that was quickly filled by Amy Coney Barrett, a conservative judge who was nominated by President Donald Trump and confirmed by the Senate in a 52-48 vote.
Amy Coney Barrett: The Rise of a Conservative Justice
Amy Coney Barrett was born in New Orleans, Louisiana, in 1972. She graduated from Notre Dame Law School in 1997 and went on to clerk for Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia. She later taught law at the University of Notre Dame and served as a judge on the Seventh Circuit Court of Appeals.
Barrett is a devout Catholic who is likely to be a reliable vote for conservative causes. She is opposed to abortion and same-sex marriage, and she has expressed support for gun rights and religious freedom.
Barrett's appointment to the Supreme Court is likely to have a significant impact on the Court's jurisprudence for years to come. She is likely to be part of a conservative majority that will overturn or weaken many of the precedents set by the Court under Ginsburg's leadership.
The Impact of Ruth Bader Ginsburg's Death
The death of Ruth Bader Ginsburg has had a profound impact on the Supreme Court and the country. Her loss has left a void on the Court that is likely to be filled by a conservative justice who will shift the Court to the right for years to come.
Ginsburg's death has also sparked a national debate about the future of the Supreme Court. Some argue that the Court should be reformed to make it more representative of the American people. Others argue that the Court should remain independent of politics.
The debate about the future of the Supreme Court is likely to continue for years to come. However, one thing is clear: Ruth Bader Ginsburg's legacy will continue to inspire generations of Americans.
The Death of Ruth Bader Ginsburg: The Rise of Amy Coney Barrett and Twelve is a must-read for anyone interested in the Supreme Court, the law, or American politics. Biskupic's book is a well-written and informative account of a pivotal moment in American history.
