Our founder, Laura W. Brill, served as a law clerk to Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg. On this third anniversary of her passing, Laura reflects on her teachings about democracy, which are even more resonant today.
“RBG wanted us to know that each one of us already has a teaspoon, a glass, and a bucket.
We have a vote and the ability to influence those around us who can vote. We have values and stories. We are connected through relationships. We already know that equality, dignity, and care are important in public life. We don’t need anyone’s permission to speak openly about what we want for the future of the country, our communities, our families, and ourselves...
And as we mourn her loss, we can also honor her by committing to carrying on her work. Grab a teaspoon and join us.”
