Gloria Steinem and Professor Amanda Tyler: The Legacy of Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg

Gloria Steinem and Amanda Tyler

Join women’s rights icon Gloria Steinem and Berkeley School of Law Professor Amanda Tyler for a deep examination of the life and work of Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg.

As Justice Ginsburg argued for gender equality in the courtrooms, Steinem was on the front lines — two lifelong allies in a joint pursuit. Tyler is a former Ginsburg law clerk and co-author with the Justice on her final book, Justice, Justice Thou Shalt Pursue. Together they look at Justice Ginsburg’s trailblazing legacy, exploring the landmark cases and barrier-breaking achievements that resulted in transforming not only the American legal landscape but American society itself.
