History was made! Ketanji Brown Jackson is the first Black woman to be confirmed to the Supreme Court. ♥️
Jackson will not be sworn in until after Breyer’s term is up, but New Jersey Sen. Cory Booker, who was an ardent supporter of hers from the very beginning, shared his “immense pride” and “joy at this historic occasion”.
“As Judge Jackson ascends to the United States Supreme Court, I see in her the affirmation of our ancestors who suffered the indignities of this country yet sacrificed to bend the moral arc of our nation towards justice,” he wrote. “They knew that America, though haunted by its past failings, was not bound by them and believed that a day like this would eventually arrive.”
