Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg has reached icon status in recent years. Despite being an esteemed member of America’s highest court for years, it’s recently that many have put her on a pedestal and deemed her almost superhuman. And rightfully so, as RBG has proven to be one of the best symbols of justice for generations. In 2018, Felicity Jones did RBG right in the biopic “On the Basis of Sex,” giving many a peek into the esteemed woman’s early years.
