Abella Issues Rule of Law Rallying Cry
Former Supreme Court Justice Rosalie Silberman Abella emphasizes the importance of protecting justice to safeguard democracy, stating:
If we judges and lawyers don't protect justice, then democracy doesn't have a chance.
Abella's life began in Stuttgart, Germany, in 1946, after the Second World War, where her parents spent over three years in concentration camps. Her family suffered greatly, with her brother, father's parents, and three younger brothers killed at Treblinka.
Abella's experiences have instilled in her an unquenchable thirst for democracy, rights, and justice. As she notes, her birth in the shadow of the Holocaust has led to an
exaggerated commitment to the pursuit of justice.
