Ruth Bader Ginsburg is widely regarded as a feminist icon. Among her many activist actions during her legal career, Ginsburg worked to upend legislation that discriminated based on one’s gender, was a founding counsel for the American Civil Liberties Union’s Women’s Rights Project, designed and taught law courses on gender discrimination laws, and was outspoken about her disagreements with her colleagues’ decisions during her tenure as a Supreme Court of the United States justice.
