Ketanji Brown Jackson
This piece was one of nine created for my exhibit Regarding Privilege, on display from September 23rd to November 2nd, 2023.
U.S. Supreme Court Justice
b. September 14, 1970
Quote is from page 26 of Jackson’s dissent in the Supreme Court of the United States case Students for Fair Admissions, Inc. v. President and Fellows of Harvard College and Students for Fair Admissions, Inc. v. University of North Carolina, et al., published June 29, 2023.
As the first Black woman to be appointed to the U.S. Supreme Court, Ketanji Brown Jackson is a perfect example of the benefits diversity brings to traditional institutions.

The text of this piece reads:
The only way out of this morass – for all of us – is to stare at racial disparity unblinkingly, and then do what evidence and experts tell us is required to level the playing field and march forward together collectively striving to achieve true equality for all Americans.
