From The Lily: Moms and daughters remember Ruth Bader Ginsburg
There were many mothers and daughters at the Supreme Court on Saturday morning. Some came to lay flowers or signs. Others stood on the side of the road, looking up at the flag, now lowered to half-staff. Daughters as young as 5 understood who RBG was, and why she was important.
“That’s right. Justice Ginsburg was also told she wasn’t able to do things because she was a girl. And Grace, what can you do now? You can do anything you want, right?”Kristen Shattuck of Arlington, Va., has also made a point to tell her two daughters, ages 12 and 16, about Ginsburg. She’s been following her career since 1992, the first time she voted in a presidential election.
Lucy Cunningham, 8, has learned about Ginsburg in school. There was a “whole section” about her in her first-grade class, she said. She especially loved hearing about how Ginsburg’s husband did all the work around the house. Willa was “heartbroken” when her mom told her that Ginsburg had died, she said. At first, she didn’t believe her.Whenever Willa notices something unfair, she says, she thinks about Ginsburg — especially when it’s something that’s unfair for girls. Playing soccer last weekend, she noticed that all the boys had new jerseys, but none of the girls did. The boys’ teams are named after real soccer teams, she said, while the girls’ teams are named after colors.
