US Swears In First Black Female Supreme Court Judge (Photos)

Ketanji Brown Jackson has become the first Black woman to serve as a Judge at the Supreme Court, making history in the United States on Thursday, June 30.

For the first time in 233 years, white people do not predominate on the nation’s highest court thanks to Democratic President Joe Biden’s selection of Ketanji, 51.

The 6-3 conservative majority on the Supreme Court, which has been under fire from the Left for increasing the ability to bear weapons and outlawing abortion rights, won’t alter despite her confirmation.

Jackson made a brief statement during the ceremony on Thursday that marked her swearing-in.

Speaking at a White House event, a day after the Senate decision, Jackson said, “It has taken 232 years and 115 prior appointments for a Black woman to be selected to serve on the Supreme Court of the United States, but we’ve made it! We’ve made it — all of us,” Jackson said in remarks at a White House event the day after the Senate vote.

“I have dedicated my career to public service because I love this country and our Constitution and the rights that make us free.”

Ketanji received support from three Senate Republicans, giving Biden’s first Supreme Court nominee majority votes (53-47).

Although they all graduated from the prestigious Harvard or Yale law schools, the nine-member court now has four female justices, making it the most diverse bench in history.
