Overall: @AllegedlyHuman: This is a really great article that you created. The sources are fine, no grammatical or spelling issues, and I don't see anything preventing this from becoming a DYK. Although I proposed this hook ALT3:... that Robin Ransom, who became the first African-American woman on the Supreme Court of Missouri, said she did not like law school?
