It’s August 11th. On this day in 1993, Ruth Bader Ginsburg spent her first full day on the Supreme Court.
Jody and Niki are joined by Dahlia Lithwick of Slate to discuss Ginsburg’s nomination and how she went from measured incrementalist to feminist icon.
Be sure to listen to Dahlia’s special series on RBG in the Amicus podcast feed.
