The whole world has been mourning Ruth Bader Ginsburg. She passed away at the age of 87 after finally lossing her battle with pancreatic cancer. She is mostly known for serving in the Supreme Justice Court and for championing women's rights. She was a Cornell gaduate -- obtaining her Bachelor degree from Cornell at the age of 21. There she met her husband and had the courage to start a family before starting law school at Harvard. This did not stop her from changing the world as we knew it by founding the Women's Rights Project and fighting against discrimination on behalf of both men and women.
She left behind a career that led to a miriad of changes that have empowered women, and a family formed from two children, four grand-children, and a great-grandchild. Her most fevent dying wish was to not be replaced until another president is sworn in office. Of course, president Trump is trying to replace her. It remains to be seen if he will succeed.
