I'm not really one to read biographies nor do I spend much time reading feminist writings but when this book was on sale for kindle for a few dollars I thought it might be good to learn more about this little lady on the Supreme Court. I'm glad that I made the purchase.

While there are some dry sections here most of this is an easy read and it illuminates just how different the world was when RBG was a young woman. Her accomplishments are impressive and the world she navigated seems impossible for such a recent past. I'm grateful to have my eyes opened and to appreciate the work of those who fought to make the world a better place.

Wow, what an exceptionally strong and independent woman. She was lucky enough to find a man back in the day that not only could handle it but encouraged it. I cannot imagine what this world would be like if all men were not threatened and felt like less by a woman being this way. I had not seen any of the movies on her so this was a real good read. I encourage all people, left or right, to learn about her. Even if you don't agree with her politics (equal rights for all), she has a lesson on pushing forward through adversity and challenges. She reminds me a bit of what my grandmother was like. I wish I had been able to be more confident in myself.… (mais)
