This was a truly historic week at the White House.
When I made the commitment to nominate the first Black woman to the Supreme Court, I could see this day. I could see it as a day of hope. A day of promise and progress. A day when once again the moral arc of the universe bends just a little more towards justice.
Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson called her confirmation to the Supreme Court “the greatest honor of my life.” President Biden hailed a “real change” in American history as he and his supporters celebrated the ascension of the first Black woman to the court. nyti.ms/3umfx2q
The White House just released the first official portrait of Judge -- soon to be Justice -- Ketanji Brown Jackson. The photo was taken by Lelanie Foster, a young black photographer from the Bronx.

I have long said America is a nation that can be defined in a single word: Possibilities. In America, everyone should be able to go as far as their hard work and God-given talent will take them. Even to the Supreme Court of the United States of America. Photo by Lelanie Foster
When I made the commitment to nominate the first Black woman to the Supreme Court, I could see this day. I could see it as a day of hope. A day of promise and progress. A day when once again the moral arc of the universe bends just a little more towards justice.
No one stole our joy as we pushed the Senate to confirm Ketanji Brown Jackson — a #JusticeForAll — to the Supreme Court. And no one ever will. Yes, we’re still celebrating.
Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson: "To my daughters, Talia and Leila...this is all pretty exciting for me, as well, but nothing has brought me greater joy than being your mother. I love you very much." abcn.ws/3umygen

The People’s House has seen few days as glorious as this. Lost it when Her Honor said “My family went from segregation to the Supreme Court in one generation” and quoted Maya Angelou: “I am the dream and hope of the slave.” Looking around, I wasn’t alone. Happy KBJ Day.
Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson 🇺🇸
Yes! “In my family, it took just one generation to go from segregation to the Supreme Court of the United States," Judge Jackson
‘It’s about time!’ cheered Pres. Biden as VP Kamala Harris remarked on Ketanji Brown Jackson becoming the Supreme Court’s first Black woman justice
Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson: "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."
"Leaving behind nights of terror and fear I rise Into a daybreak that’s wondrously clear I rise Bringing the gifts that my ancestors gave, I am the dream and the hope of the slave. I rise I rise I rise.” — Maya Angelou, 1978
This is not true because Janice Rodgers Brown was never nominated to the Supreme Court. And if Republicans wanted to make history by putting a Black woman on the bench, they had three chances to do so during the Trump administration, but didn't.
Watters: But Democrats also blocked who would’ve been the first black woman on the Supreme Court, Janice Rogers Brown
