The fact that reproductive rights and family planning are even up for debate at this point in the U.S. in 2020 is insane.

We can't let an ignorant administration stack the Supreme Court with Justices who don't represent the people they're nominated to serve. #RBG #righttochoose #prochoice

I met Justice Ginsburg, or "Ruth" as I grew to cal

I met Justice Ginsburg, or "Ruth" as I grew to call her, last year while filming Taste the Nation. She was so kind, curious and lovely. I wrote this of our meeting at the time:

"There are meals in your life you will never forget. Meals you will tell your grandkids about. Last night was one of them. I had dinner with someone I’ve admired for a long long time. And she did not disappoint. Witty and whip smart, she had a twinkle in her eye the whole night. We sipped champagne, savored our gazpacho and crab and talked of India in the 80’s and so much more."

Weeks after Ruth invited me and Littlehands to meet her in her chambers at the Supreme Court where she patiently explained the many cases she had to Littlehands.

She sent us books in the mail, beautifully wrapped with handwritten notes. I went back to visit her at court when the ACLU had a case on immigration there.

I cannot tell you what a loss this is for me personally, for women everywhere and for our country. She started the women’s rights project at the ACLU many years ago and my work and the work of so many would not be possible if she hadn’t paved the way for us. She was someone I have admired so much for so many years, someone I looked up to.

With so much going on in her life, she took the time to befriend me and Littlehands and I will never forget her.

A tall tree has fallen in our forest... #RIPRBG #RIPRuth

This is the same woman who has never needed a stud

This is the same woman who has never needed a student loan but wants to end loan forgiveness.

Also the same person who financially favors private schools over public schools and left over 800 rural schools without basic supplies.

But, nice tweet...

"The other day she FaceTimed me to ask, 'Mom, how hot does oil have to be to fry chicken?' I was like, 'What? That's too dangerous!’ But she was adamant about doing it, so I walked her through the steps...

Krishna had prepared the egg wash, the breadcrumbs and the flour, and had the paper towels and tongs all ready. She had even salted the breading.'

'When I asked her how she knew how to do it, she said, 'Mom, I've been watching you for years!'"

Thank you for the beautiful cover @parents 💖 📷: @inezandvinoodh

Today is my sweet nephew Sidhanth’s 12th birthda

Today is my sweet nephew Sidhanth’s 12th birthday 🎂 His last year of childhood before adolescence.

I never feel the loss of not having a boy child because of Sid and his brother Ari. Before littlehands was born, I used to go over to my cousin-sister's home, steal Sid from his babysitter and take him in his baby bjorn all over the city.

I didn’t know it then but Sid was training me for what was to come. Happy birthday Sid. I couldn’t love you more. 💖

A tribute to those we lost on 9/11: "Betty Ong wa

A tribute to those we lost on 9/11:

"Betty Ong was the first person to relay information about the hijacking of American Airlines 11 on the morning of 9/11.

Together with flight attendant colleague Amy Sweeney she notified AA ground crew of the hijacking and stayed on the phone for 25 minutes.

Betty was born in San Francisco but lived near Boston. She had spent 14 years at the job and had earned the role of head flight attendant.

She really loved her job, and on September 11 she was about to go on vacation to Hawaii with her sister after the landing in LA, which she sadly never got to do. At 8:46 am the hijackers crashed the plane into the North Tower.

Betty was not only loved by her sister and family, she was also greatly appreciated by her colleagues and the passengers on her flights.

She was the sort of flight attendant that sometimes skipped her breaks to tend to the passengers, and on overnight flights she used to walk the aisles offering blankets.

The morning of Sept. 11, Ong responded with incredible courage and professionalism. She relayed vital information that eventually led to the closing of airspace by the FAA for the first time in United States history.

She was survived by her parents and three siblings." (More tributes in stories via @stories.911) #neverforget
