Ruth Bader Ginsburg was so many things- an inspirational supreme court justice; a warrior, fighting a battle for justice and equality; a hero who swooped down and saved us all. For the 87 years that she lived, RBG stood up selflessly against racism and inequality, and made many decisions that changed the world for the better. It pains me to say that she will no longer be around to improve all of our lives, but the only way to properly honor her death is to keep fighting for what she believed in, to keep striving to make our beautiful but not flawless world a little bit better and fairer than it is, then a little bit more, then a little bit more after that. Today we lost a justice, a warrior, a hero, but let us, in her memory, keep sprouting more justices, warriors, and heroes that will continue to make a difference in the world, and,
“Do something a little outside yourself, something to make life a little better for people less fortunate than you. That’s what I think a meaningful life is. Living not for oneself but for one’s community.” - RBG
