Thanks for the clip! I'm six months pregnant and devastated for anyone who will be forced to be so against their will.

In 1971, when Hugo Black retired, Pauli Murray wrote to Richard Nixon to propose replacing him. "I am a Negro woman 60 years old...My application is to forestall the popular misconception that no qualified women applied or are available." A half century later...

Still feels wild to be briefly unmasked even with a vax requirement BUT @BillieJeanKing came to the opening of @NotoriousRBG at @NYHistory and meeting her and @ilanakloss was a delight.

[Billie Jean King @BillieJeanKing]

The Life and Times of Ruth Bader Ginsburg @NYHistory opens to the public tomorrow.

If you’re close enough to visit the exhibit, don’t miss it.

We sit in the shade of trees we did not plant.

Remembering RBG and so many luminaries today.

[New York Times Arts @nytimesarts]

Pauli Murray's views on gender, race, sexuality and equality were generations ahead of their time, influencing both Ruth Bader Ginsburg and Thurgood Marshall. So why isn't the lawyer-activist-minister better known? A new film aims to change that. https://t.co/sqjXBMCg9t

[Patricia Bell-Scott @PBell_Scott]

MY NAME IS PAULI MURRAY opens in U.S. theatres tomorrow. This documentary honors Murray’s efforts to be heard and tells the story of Murray’s contributions to the struggle for human rights. See why Thurgood Marshall, Ruth Bader Ginsburg, and others have relied on Murray’s work.

I just donated to 9 Texas abortion funds being targeted by SB 8, which bans abortion as early as 6 weeks. Join me in funding these organizations. They are on the frontlines every single day. #TxDeservesBetter #BansOffOurBodies https://t.co/kiwXqBBg0G

This racist, cruel, and illegal Georgia law is part of the legacy of Shelby County v. Holder.

Three years ago, @FilmmakerJulie and I went to @sundancefest with #RBG. Thanks to her, we are back! We first learned about the extraordinary Pauli Murray from Justice Ginsburg. Honored to tell Pauli's story and thrilled that MY NAME IS PAULI MURRAY premieres #Sundance tonight.

[Illinois Holocaust Museum @ihmec]

In 1970, Captain Susan Struck became pregnant and the US Air Force told her she had to quit or get an abortion. She wanted to use her sick leave to give birth and put the baby up for adoption.
RBG jumped at the chance to prove reproductive freedom was a condition of equality.

[Ria Tabacco Mar @RiaTabaccoMar]

RBG may have saved the sex discrimination argument for later, but she didn’t wait for the Title VII cases, instead dropping this FN in her dissent in Masterpiece Cakeshop 👇🏽

[Irin Carmon @irin]

Al Gore chose RBG to swear him in in 1997. Wish she had lived to see today.
