National Coffee Day a Day of Jitters.

The Mid-Century World Ruth Bader Ginsburg Defied
The world was never the same because of Ruth Bader Ginsburg. A shy, petite, Jewish girl from Brooklyn changed my life forever. Her impact was as profound as another self-effacing, compassionate, Jewish, Brooklyn-born woman. My mother. Their place and affections
