The Blue Feet Foundation

The Blue Feet Foundation

Believe this.

When a woman like this leaves our mortal coil,
we owe it to her not to grieve,
not to weep or be sad.

We owe it to her to rise.
To all be a little bit more like her..

To be louder, braver,
so that the girls born today have new heroines to look up to.

That’s what she would want.

RIP Ruth Bader Ginsburg
1933-2020

Know the facts and don’t accept misinformation. Armed with the facts, parents can better advocate for their children. - Kristine
