When US President Joe Biden nominated Ketanji Brown Jackson to the United States’ highest court, he praised her “exceptional credentials, unimpeachable character, and an unwavering dedication to the rule of law”.
Biden’s pick was also historic, as Jackson would be the first Black woman to ever serve on the US Supreme Court – and she has received support from a wide array of stakeholders, from Democratic lawmakers to civil rights groups, law enforcement agencies and state attorneys general.
