Constance Baker Motley, 1921-2005

Let's take a moment to remember a fine human being: Women's Hall of Famer, judge, lawyer, senator and civil rights warrior Ms. Constance Baker Motley, who died Tuesday in New York at the age of 84. She will be sorely missed, but she got a hell of a lot done while she was here.

~“Something which we think is impossible now, is not impossible in another decade.”

One way to celebrate her great gift of advocating for justice in America might be to contribute what you can to the NAACP Legal Defense and Educational Fund. Or at least pay them a visit (check out the nifty Flash timeline).

(Thanks to Armando for the head's up.)
