Is justice a black woman?
The US Supreme Court has existed for 233 years, with 115 sitting justices. If confirmed, Jackson would become the sixth woman to serve on the court – after Sandra Day O’Connor, Ginsburg, Sonia Sotomayor, Elena Kagan, and Barrett. And if appointed, Jackson would become only the third Black justice – after Clarence Thomas and Thurgood Marshall. And Black women justices are not at all common in American society.
