Main lesson(s): Ruth Bader Ginsburg never let anything stop her from making her mark: not her heritage, not her gender, and certainly not the law. Ginsburg fought against social injustice by becoming a lawyer, something uncommon for a girl at the time. One day, she was asked by then-President Bill Clinton to be a Supreme Court Justice—the first Jewish woman on the nation’s highest court. Ginsburg persistently dissented against court rulings that she did not agree with, but that never got in the way of her positive working relationships with other Supreme Court Justices.
