‘Notorious RBG’ exhibit in Philly lets you listen to Ginsburg’s dissents and pose in a jabot
Inquirer ^ | 10/04/19 | Siani Colón

U.S. Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg is one of the most accomplished women in America’s history and a pop-culture icon, too. She’s on T-shirts. She’s on mugs. She accessorizes her robes at the neckline with an assortment of stylish jabots that court-watchers read like tea leaves to see which way she might be leaning.

A relentless voice on the bench for women’s equality and civil rights, Ginsburg has been the subject of a best-selling book, an Emmy-winning documentary, and the Hollywood biopic On the Basis of Sex.

Now, a traveling museum exhibit inspired by and named for the book — Notorious RBG: The Life and Times of Ruth Bader Ginsburg - is opening at Philadelphia’s National Museum of American Jewish History, its first East Coast stop.

The “Notorious RBG” label, applied in admiration by authors Irin Carmon and Shana Knizhnik, recognizes a history of dissent by the liberal justice in conservative-majority decisions, most notably the 2013 landmark Shelby County v. Holder invalidating key parts of the Voting Rights Act.

Posing in a RBG’s jabot has vaulted to the top of my bucket list of things not to do.

Racist. In her first 25 years on the Supreme Ct. she only hired one black law clerk.

RBG is a Supreme Court justice who promotes the legalization of abortion from the highest position

I mean there is nothing interesting about people. Who don’t recognize that there is hell

She's a total disgrace. That should just about sum it up.

She has gotten so much ‘press’ lately, I am ‘almost’ positive she no longer resides on this planet.

How better to ‘forget’ if they keep mentioning her.

None of the other ‘firsts’ on the Court have ever gotten this much publicity(ie YES, she is alive, my cousins landlords cleaning lady said her sister SAW her a month ago), one would almost think she is ‘running for office’ again.

Watching her funeral will be better than watching the election returns in 2016.

All the wailing of the Liberals...

So when she is dead she will be remembered for her positions on abortion. Then it will come out she was a homosexual. That is how she will be remembered. The abortionist supporting God hating homosexual who spent her last days trying to outlast the Trump presidency.

It’s almost a bar of soap ... if you are in Latin America.

It is an ornament one can wear around the neck...usually lace. You know someone is one step away when they start eulogizing them before they are dead. I hope the supreme Judge has mercy on her soul....and doesn’t abort it from its eternal potential.

“Too bad she can’t pose in a gibbet.”

Gibbet or giblet? Either one would be interesting .
