8 years 5 months ago
Stirring in all the right ways, "RBG" is much more than just a profile of Ruth Bader Ginsburg, the unexpectedly iconic Supreme Court Justice.

8 years 5 months ago
Some refer to prison as a place where hope dies. Some days I've found that to be almost right. But at the beginning of my time here I made a pact -- that I wouldn't give up hope. Each time that I've come close, God has restored my faith.
