I was proud to be part of the United States team that rallied the world to support Ukraine. Now, I’m horrified by what we’ve become. A tragic day for democracy and an indelible stain on America’s history.

Humility is in order right now. No one knows what will make a difference. So do everything that you can to take some form of constructive action. 1000 people taking action is ALWAYS better than 1000 people doing nothing or 1000 people acting like East German figure skating judges.

Stay strong my friends. Rest. Recharge. Dig deep. We need each other and the country needs us. I have no idea what's awaiting me, or what will happen when this all ends. For the moment I know this: there are sick people and they need curing. Albert Camus, The Plague

I love this so much! At the inauguration, Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson wore a distinctive collar adorned with cowrie shells, which are believed to offer protection from evil in African traditions. This choice mirrors the late Justice Ginsburg’s practice of using collars to convey a message.
