Since the passing of Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg was announced Friday night, the internet has been collectively short circuiting as we try to process the loss of a national hero that fought for so many. RBG was a trailblazer, a force of nature, and an inspiration to an uncountable number of people around the world. The country has run to social media to pour out our grief for Ruth and what people are writing is sad and sweet and powerful and inspirational and everything else representative of RBG’s legacy. The common theme: fight in her honor.
