When an 8-year-old girl named Emma dressed up as the illustrious Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg for Superhero Day, she probably never expected to receive a personal note from the icon herself! Emma, who strayed from the typical capes and comic book heroes, took inspiration from Ginsburg’s remarkable journey after reading “I Dissent: Ruth Bader Ginsburg Makes Her Mark.”
The Supreme Court Justice, known for her fierce dedication to women’s rights and equality, was charmed by Emma’s spot-on portrayal, complete with a slick bun and oversized glasses. After seeing Emma’s superhero spirit, the 83-year-old Ginsburg sent a handwritten note that melted hearts everywhere. “Dear Emma: You look just like me! May you continue to thrive on reading and learning. Every good wish, Ruth Bader Ginsburg,” the note read. Emma’s reaction to the letter was priceless, as her mom captured the moment for posterity on social media. Can you imagine the thrill of receiving such a note from your role model?
Emma’s Passion for Fairness
Emma’s mom, Laura, shared that the book detailed the challenges Ginsburg faced growing up and her lifelong fight against inequality. “Emma is really passionate about fair treatment, especially for girls and women,” Laura said. Ginsburg included a quote in her letter that resonated deeply with Emma: “Reading is the key that opens doors to many good things in life. Reading shaped my dreams, and more reading helped me make my dreams come true.” It’s clear this sweet exchange has only fueled Emma’s love for books and learning.
“It means so much that Justice Ginsburg would take the time to encourage my daughter,” Laura added. “It’s a reminder that even small gestures can have a big impact.” Emma’s enthusiasm has inspired her classmates to think beyond traditional superhero costumes, leading to a wave of interest in dressing up as real-life heroes. Who knew a simple costume could spark such inspiration?
