Ruth Bader Ginsburg to Speak at Constitution Center


So this is why Ashton Kutcher is speaking at Penn. All of the country’s “great minds” that weren’t on a hit TV show, like Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, had prior engagements.

Ginsburg, in fact, is scheduled to speak at the Constitution Center tonight in front of a sold-out audience. Ginsburg, for those Ashton Kutcher fans among us, recently performed a same-sex marriage ceremony at the Kennedy Center for the Performing arts after 20 years on the nation’s highest court. Now that’s a reason to listen to someone talk.

The talk starts at 7:30, so if you’re feeling lucky (or if scalpers exist for Constitution Center events), head on down and try to get in. It’s not everyday you get high odds of seeing the second woman appointed to the Supreme Court discuss gay marriage—one of our country’s biggest hangups to date.

Penn, I hope you’re taking notes. [Philly.com]
