2:27Now PlayingPresident Joe Biden introduced federal appeals court Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson as his nominee to be the first Black woman on the Supreme Court Friday, saying he had found “a brilliant legal mind with the utmost character and integrity.”
Jackson “will bring extraordinary qualifications, deep experience and intellect, and a rigorous judicial record to the court,” Biden said at the White House, flanked by her and Vice President Kamala Harris.
Jackson, 51, would be the sixth female justice in the court’s history, the third African American and the first to have once been a federal public defender. She would succeed the retiring Justice Stephen Breyer, 83, for whom she once worked as a law clerk. The nomination won’t alter the court’s conservative tilt but would add a fresh voice to the three-member liberal wing.
