No Truth Without Ruth

No Truth Without Ruth: The Life of Ruth Bader Ginsburg
by Kathleen Krull (Author) and Nancy Zhang (Illustrator)

Booktalk: Ruth Bader Ginsburg may be one of the most respected women in the United States, but her recognition is nothing short of hard-won. For years before becoming a justice of the Supreme Court, Ruth had to fight the notion that being female meant that she was less smart, less qualified, and less worthy of attention than her male counterparts. Throughout college, law school, and her work life, she faced discrimination–because she was a woman.

Snippet: One evening, the dean of the law school invited the nine female students to dinner at his house. How thoughtful. But it turned out he wanted to ask why each was there taking the place of a man.
