Ruth Bader Ginsberg, born the same year as my mother, changed the world in ways that benefited women of my generation and younger. In the immediate aftermath of her death, I began writing a tribute. I kept thinking of her impact and how she and my own mother had so many similarities. I had students reach out to me, sharing their grief and their memories of reading about her together.

A friend had shared a link for these shoes that could be purchased at a discount if we placed a group order. I messaged about 10 friends and immediately had an order of 7 pairs.

They arrived today.

In the wake of yesterday’s shameful vote approving a new Supreme Court justice, who will NEVER replace RBG, I’m happy to have them.
