In honor of Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg and her vision of a United States of America, I offer this rendition of "America the Beautiful". The beautiful photographs taken by Kimberly Wang, shot over the past 3 years, capture perfectly the optimistic and hopeful vision of this country that my friend, Ruth, espoused. In her honor, I ask you to do all you can to be sure you, and everyone you know, votes on November 3.
America the Beautiful (1911 version)
O beautiful for spacious skies,
For amber waves of grain,
For purple mountain majesties
Above the fruited plain!
America! America!
God shed His grace on thee
And crown thy good with brotherhood
From sea to shining sea!
O beautiful for heroes proved
In liberating strife,
Who more than self their country loved
And mercy more than life!
America! America!
God mend thine every flaw,
Confirm thy soul in self-control,
Thy liberty in law!
