CBS News reports:
A large crowd of people gathered on the steps of the Supreme Court on Friday night after the death of Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg. Well-wishers left flowers and signs and broke into applause and songs, and the American flag outside the Supreme Court was lowered to half-mast.
“I think it’s a testament to who she was as a woman,” a woman who attended with her young child told CBS affiliate WUSA-9. Another young woman who attended said it was “inspiring” to see so many people there.
A vigil is being planned for Saturday, which is expected to be followed this week by mass events across the country, according to a source familiar with the plans of the liberal nonprofit Indivisible.
