Supreme Court Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson is reportedly working on a memoir, and I’m sure you’re all so very excited to read it because of how “historic” her nomination was.
Though neither the first black justice nor the first woman justice, Jackson has long been marketed as the first black woman justice. Ironically, Jackson was unable to define what a woman is during her confirmation hearings last year in response to a question from Sen. Marsha Blackburn (R-Tenn.)
“Can you provide a definition for the word ‘woman?’” Blackburn asked.
“Can I provide a definition? No. I can’t,” Jackson responded.
“You can’t?”
“Not in this context,” Jackson said. “I’m not a biologist.”
