Source: The Hill
The late Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg's judicial robe, her collars and other possessions associated with her legal career will be donated to the Smithsonian's National Museum of American History, the museum announced on Wednesday.
The museum will preview the artifacts at a virtual tribute Wednesday during which it will also award her a posthumous Great Americans Medal.
The items being donated by her children include her Maison Blanc black robe, which was ordered from France; four collars, including her white lace collar and her Banana Republic-made "Dissent collar;" a dozen briefs for cases she argued before joining the Supreme Court; and a black leather briefcase with her initials on it, according to the museum.
The museum's virtual tribute to the feminist icon will also include testimonials from Chief Justice John G. Roberts, Jr., President Jimmy Carter and Oprah Winfrey. The announcement comes toward the end of March, which is Women's History Month.
