This video from The New York Times is a tribute to Ruth Bader Ginsburg who died last week.

Ruth Bader Ginsburg (she was also known as the 'notorious RBG') was a member of the Supreme Court, a role that she would hold until she died. She was a pioneer in the field of law and feminism arguing for equality between the sexes.

The video includes a biography of RBG, her impact on American culture and her views on society. It could be used for the Theory and Methods unit (feminism).
