Impact on the legal and political world. She was a champion of human rights, womens rights in particular, throughout her long and shatterbarring career. I had three strikes against me. One, i was jewish, two, i was a woman, but the killer was that i was the mother of a 4yearold child. Reporter so how did she rise to the highest court in the country . Coming up this sunday morning, the notorious r. B. G. , Ruth Bader Ginsburg. Pauley from that sad night, it is on to raising the curtain on the new season in entertainment and the arts. A new season so different from those past, you might as well call it the new, new season. From the challenge of safely reopening art museums to the release of firstrun movies on television, to pop music stars not performing their new work live on stage, this new season bears little resemblance to the new seasons of old, as well be showing you throughout the morning. And speaking of pop music stars, lee cowan will be talking with lady gaga, who says she released her latest hit album only after a long period of personal pain. [laughter] reporter lady gaga, she is in sync with herself now, but the last two years were anything but harmonious. I was paralyzed with fear. I would wake up and remember who i was in the world, and it no longer was something i was happy about and it was dark. Reporter lady gaga lost and found, later on sunday morning. Pauley also ahead, we visit with latenight talk show hosts desus mero. Well look forward to the new season in art, music, and fashion. Plus thoughts on the family dinner from chef bobby flay, and, of course, more on Justice Ginsburgs passing. It is sunday morning, september 20th, 2020. And well be right back. It was just a get together with friends. No big deal. Everybody felt fine. But now im super sick. Everyone is sick. I just wish we had been more careful. It would have been easier than this. So wear a mask. Do what you can outside. Stay six feet apart. Because some things you just cant take back. Do your part to lower the risk. Propit provides property tax mostfairnessble.

Pauley washington is already consumed by implications about the death of Ruth Bader Ginsburg. But lets not let the fix sation on what comes next overshadow the remarkable record on what Justice Ginsburg accomplished in life. Erin moriarty has our remembrance. There was a senator who announced with great glee that i was going to be dead within six months. That senator, whose name ive forgotten is now. [indiscernable]. Reporter Ruth Bader Ginsburg lived a life defying expectations. After careful deflection, i am proud to nominate to associate justice of the Supreme Court, judge Ruth Bader Ginsburg. Reporter she was nominated in 1993 to the highest court by president bill clinton, a democrat. My approach, i believe, is neither liberal or conservative. Reporter and approved by a bipartisan senate. When i was appointed, the vote was 963, and i was known as a flaming feminist. Reporter during her tenure, she led the court in landmark decisions that expanded the rights of women. And even as the court grew more conservative and she herself battled cancer four times, she continued to make her point in off cutting descents. The court does not comprehend or is indifferent to the insidious way in which women can be victims of pay discrimination. People really responded to the idea of this tiny, determined jurist who was standing up for the principles of equal rights, voting rights, reproductive rights, and that just exploded on the internet. Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg. [applause] reporter filmmakers betsy weiss and julie cohen made the documentary. Ruth knew what she was doing in laying the foundation to put women on exactly the same plain as men. I think there is a certain authenticity to her. She is an unlikely rock star, lets face it. Im 84 years old, and Everyone Wants to take a picture with me. Reporter at just 5 1 it was her super human ability to survive that made her a cultural icon and perhaps the most recognized justice in the courts history. The moniker, the notorious r. B. G. , a nod to the wrapper b. I. G. , took off and notoriety followed. People say, isnt this a weird connection between you and the notorious rapper . And she said, why would that be surprising . We have a lot in common. We have a lot in common. We were both born and bred in brooklyn, new york. Reporter born Joan Ruth Bader in flatbush, brooklyn, her father, nathan immigrated from odessa, and her mom died two days her high school graduation. She said two things be a lady and be independent. Be a lady meant dont give way to emotions that zap your energy, like anger. Take a deep breath and speak calmly. Reporter ruth was inspired both by her mothers words and her lifes story. Her mother was the brains in the family, but her parents wanted her to go out and work even before finishing high school because there was a boy in the family, and money had to be made so that he could go to college. Reporter Jane Ginsburg is the justices daughter. Clara spera, her granddaughter. And how do you think that affected your mom . Seeing a less qualified male preferred to a deserving woman was something that marked her from a very early age. Reporter ruth bader excelled as an undergrad at cornell university, but in an era when even the brightest woman were encouraged to pursue an m. R. S. Degree, ruth wanted more. And that drive is what attracted a fellow student and future husband marty ginsburg, who died of cancer in 2010. This is typical marty. Reporter why do you say it is typical marty . Because he is reading a good back and he is underdressed. Reporter their early relationship is featured in the movie on the basis of sex. Which one makes me look more like a harvard man . He was her biggest supporter. My mother always said at cornell, he was the only boy who cared she had a brain. Reporter she married marty in 1954, and had jane in 1955, and enrolled at Harvard Law School the following year. When her husband graduated harvard law in 1958 and took a job with a firm in new york, ruth transferred to columbia law school, where she graduated first in her class and still found herself unable to get a job. I had three strikes against me. One, i was jewish, two, i was a woman, but the killer was i was the mother of a 4yearold child. She was virtually unemployable. Reporter Stacy Hawkins teaches law at rutgers law school. They simply were unwilling to give an opportunity to a working woman with a child. Reporter a lot of people would be discouraged by that and would just not push ahead. I think thats what has propelled her. She history this quiet, steady, yet deeply deliberate way about her that she pursues everything, and that she knows exactly how she is going to achieve her goals. Reporter ruth became a law professor at rutgers, paving the way for women like hawkins, and it was here that ginsburg found her lifelong passion working towards womens rights. It again after a few students asked for a class on women and the law. She realized that there wasnt much in the way of women in the law. In fact, that the law was very unfriendly to women, and it really did inspire her own interest advocating for womens rights. Reporter in the 1970s, she founded the aclu womens rights project, and went before the Supreme Court to argue six gender discrimination cases. A persons sex bears no necessary relationship to ability. Reporter she won five of them. It was difficult, even into the middle 70s, to persuade judges who at that time were overwhelming male and white, to persuade them that there was such a thing as discrimination against women, because their idea was women are on a pedestal. Women are protected by the law. And many women were finding out that these socalled protections were protecting mens jobs from womens competition. This one is when i announced a majority opinion. Reporter and later on the Supreme Court herself, where she stood out with her distinctive feminine collars, Justice Ginsburg was a liberal voice for constitutional protections. In 2013, Shelby County versus holder, which watered down voters rights, she wrote the do descent. Race based voting discrimination still exists. Reporter she thought this case was extraordinarily wrongly decided, and she said that the reason why alabama and other Southern States had not been able to engage in the kind of voters tactics that would intimidate and disenfranchise black voters is precisely because they were prevented from doing so. This decision is like throwing away your umbrella in a rainstorm because youre not getting wet. People understood that analogy because it was something that everybody could relate to. It was like a rap lyric. Reporter music was a constant in the justices life, beginning early on in brooklyn, when her aunt took her to the opera. I was blown away by it, by the glorious music and the drama. Reporter opera became a passion that she famously enjoyed with a fellow enthusiast, the late conservative Justice Anton scalia. 7 reporter in 2015, the duo inspired a comic opera based on their unlikely friendship. That is the closing number to we are different, we are one, were different in the way we approach legal text, but one in our reverence to the constitution. Reporter in life, Ruth Bader Ginsburg worked to expand the rights of the constitution to everyone, says lawyer clara spera. We call her Justice Ginsburg, what do you call her . I call her bubbi. And she says her grandmother may not be done yet. I think after hollywood movies are done, after the twitter means are done, people will still remember her. We will still be reading her opinions in law school, and i do wonder if 10, 20 years from now, well look to her defense in cases like Shelby County and see that the things she predicted that would happen to our democracy did, in fact, happen. That while her descent, while they are descents now, may ultimately become majority popular and political opinion. And savings accounts king have no fees or minimums because that.

There are memberships for all kinds of things today. But what about being a member of the family . What about being a member of the community . What about being a member of humanity . What if there was a membership that gave us the time to celebrate the things that connect all of us . Pauley whats new in americas museums at this time, social distancing exhibits. While it is easy for a museum to say it is going to reopen safely this new season, how they actually do is it a story that Serena Altschul has to tell. Reporter this year the metropolitan museum of art plans to celebrate its 150th anniversary. The metropolitan museum of art announced today it is temporarily closing because of covid19. Reporter however 2020 had other plans. A reopening date has not been determined. Reporter on march 13th, coronavirus forced the m. E. T. To close its doors. They wouldnt open again for another six months. That was, in some ways, the hardest part of this, to close the museum at a time when people most needed the museum. For 150 years weve been there for the community in every other moment of National Challenge or crisis. People have come to the museum for comfort and we werent able to offer that. Reporter daniel weiss is president and c. E. O. Of the m m. E. T. Prior to that, we were closed for about three days. Snowstorms and power outages, those things we can understand. So this is off the charts, new experience tor everybody. Reporter new for both museums and visitors. Masks, timed ticket entries, tonight checks, and plastic partitions have become the new normal. Stay six feet apart and Hand Sanitizer . Youre exactly right. Reporter jason cryon is director of the Natural History museum of utah. So opening the doors in an indoor venue, we needed to make sure we kept people separate, spaced apart. Instead of having people come in and explore on their own, we need to help them navigate safely. Reporter that meant figuring out how to make a childfriendly museum covid19friendly, too. We have computer interac interactives, and mechanical activities like this. Where you can use a stylist to turn one of the exhibits. You want to try . Yes. Of course, there hasnt been a quick solution for everything. Some museum have had to postpone and even cancel longplanned exhibits. Others remain closed. What you dont want to be is a petrie dish. What you want to be is a place where people get well, emotionally and spiritually. Reporter lonnie bunch is secretary of the smithsonian institution, which has only opened nin five of its 19 museums. Im more comfortable saying as we open, if the numbers get worse or the virus spikes, well close. We have to be that nimble in order to protect the public. Reporter and while reopening museums has been a challenge, keeping them open for the longterm will be another uphill battle. Over the period of this pandemic, we expect to lose about 150 million. We had to reduce our staff through voluntary retirement and with furloughs, about 25 . It is very painful. Cost so much and taken such a toll on the m. E. T. , what are other smaller museums going to do . How do they exist through this . You ask exactly the right question. I dont know. Were very fortunate we will get through this, but not everyone will. Reporter according to a study conducted by the American Alliance of museums, onethird of museums may permanently close in the next year. Laura lott is president and c. E. O. Of the alliance which represents 4,500 member institutions. Most museums get 50 of their operating budgets from earned sources, so from ticket sales, special programming, and purchases of tickets, cafe and gift shop sales. Reporter and that all stopped. And that all went to zero in march. Most predict that it is going to take months, if not years, for that kind of revenue to come back. The Brooklyn Museum will sell 12 works of art to help ease financial pressure. It is a deficit that has at least one museum considering what has long been taboo selling parts of their election to raise capital. So are you already seeing museums closing their doors for good . There have been several that have announced, the feed museum, the center for photography im afraid well see more closures as the economy takes its time coming back. Reporter as for the museums that do survive, laura lott says theyre needed now more than ever. They have weathered previous crises, recessions, and the great depression, in many cases. And there is this intangible value to museums that people do appreciate, and im optimistic that the museums that do make it through this time will emerge stronger, more connected to their communities, and continue to be vital to the human experience.

Lets go places pauley how to preview the new seasons movies, when plans for showing films at many of our movie theaters are largely in limbo. The question our David Edelstein is wrestling with. Reporter theaters, theyre gradually reopening with limited capacity. And, let me tell you, there is nothing like watching a movie on a giant screen. The actors are huge. The action sweeps you up. Ive missed it. Ive missed sharing it with other people. When theaters open here in new york, i will be. Nowhere near them. Sorry. Still too many unknowns for me. It is no time to die.
