When my husband asked me what I wanted for Christmas, I pointed out my selection in the Southwest Indian Foundation catalog: a handmade embroidered hoodie and matching drawstring pants. When we called to order it, we slowly discovered that COVID-19 had swept through the desert Southwest reservation areas and large numbers of Indians had died. That realization made me decide to interrupt my Velvet Outfits series in order to let my readers know about this urgent situation. Now, what I want for Christmas is help for Native Americans.
This week, we were saddened to lose our longtime, dedicated Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsberg. Now it’s time for mourning, respect and remembering this feminist icon. It’s not a time for rushing a new Justice to fill her seat one week later just before an election. That would be an injustice to her memory. And it would take away the rights of the people to have a say. Their vote is their chance to have a say in the matter at hand.
Also known as Notorious RBG, she received this nickname from a young woman named Shana Knizhnik who compared RBG’s dissenting opinions to protest lyrics by rapper Notorious B.I.G. The idea was that RBG was tough and absolutely awesome. Age doesn’t matter when you speak out and stand up for what’s important!
Crowds showed up at the Supreme Court steps and across the country, holding vigils after the passing of this tiny yet great woman. What they are feeling in their hearts is not something that is easy to put into words. Poetry can help a little. So I have penned a poem of hope for the grieving:
In my last post, I celebrated the 100th anniversary of ratification of the 19th Amendment, giving women the right to vote. Women’s fashion has helped them throughout their history of protest. Age doesn’t matter when a certain color, symbol or slogan is worn by women showing their support for certain issues. Fashion is how to show where you stand and how to show your true self without having to say a word.
