U.S. Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg is among four who have been awarded the Franklin D. Roosevelt Four Freedoms Award. The awards are presented each year by the Roosevelt Institute to those whose achievements focus on four freedoms: freedom of speech, freedom of worship, freedom from want and freedom from fear. The other recipients this year were Dance Theatre of Harlem founder Arthur Mitchell, North Carolina NAACP President and Reverend Dr. William Barber III and Dr. Olufunmilayo Olopade, who helped diagnose and treat breast cancer in underserved patients. The Greeneville Sun has a story from the AP.
