The Independent published this video item, entitled “Watch again: Ketanji Brown Jackson being sworn in to become first Black woman on US Supreme Court” – below is their description.
Ketanji Brown Jackson, Joe Biden’s first Supreme Court appointee, was sworn in on 30 June 2022.
She became the first Black woman to sit on the court, and replaced Stephen Breyer to join the current court’s two other liberals, Barack Obama appointees Elena Kagan and Sonia Sotomayor.
Ms Brown Jackson’s confirmation came despite several Republicans on the Judiciary Committee attacking her for her supposed radicalism and alleged history of giving unduly lenient sentences to child sex abusers.
