Note from the creator:
I'm am so happy to donate this Framed Dissent Collar Quilt to the auction. To me, this represents social justice; is to honor the outspoken voices that lift others. The dissent collar was worn by Justice Ruth Bader Ginsberg. She wore a collar like this when she presented the dissenting opinion. The jabot (which is what the collar is called) was first used by RBG and Sandra Day O'Conner - it was used instead of a tie that male justices wore under their robes and which peeked out at the top. The women wore something that had a similar aesthetic but with their own twist.
This item is available for curbside pick up only and will be available at the GSAFE office weekdays between 12/9/20 and 12/15/20. We will email winning bidders on 12/7/20 after auction closes to make shipment/pick-up arrangements.
