Among the many tributes to RBG is a wonderful piece in the New Yorker by Jill Lepore. I excerpted part of it and added a couple of the tributes from her fellow justices posted on the SCOTUS blogs.

 

We must insist that the process for determining the next justice be fair and measured. We must honor her legacy as a great equalizer and advocate for civil rights as well as her fervent wish that the nomination take place AFTER the election when we have a new Congress.
