My friends,

If Ketanji Brown Jackson is confirmed to the Supreme Court, she will not
only be the first Black woman on the highest court in the land — which is
HISTORIC — but for many of us in the justice community, her appointment is
so exciting because she is also a former public defender.

America’s courts have been missing an absolutely ESSENTIAL type of legal
diversity. I am ALL for an ethnic and gender diversity,
John. But surface level
representation does not protect us from harm.

The majority of federal judges have been career prosecutors who see
through a lens of mass incarceration.

But when you’re a public defender, this MASSIVELY changes how you view
what justice looks like. Public defenders most often represent Black and
brown people, people experiencing homelessness, people experiencing
substance misuse and people going through cycles of poverty.

This is why at Real Justice, we’ve worked so hard to recruit, vet, and
support public defenders running for local district attorney positions.
But we also need this perspective in the highest court in the land.

needed on the Supreme Court. Please,
John, add your name to our
petition to demand the U.S Senate confirm her immediately.

My friends, I feel very, VERY good about this appointment. While I have
101 (and more) strong critiques against Joe Biden and how he has failed to
deliver on many of his promises to us, this gives me hope.

He is appointing so many public defenders to lower courts — and having
someone like Ketanji Brown Jackson on the Supreme Court would be an
enormous victory.

[ [link removed] ]It is ESSENTIAL that she is confirmed immediately. Please add your name
to demand Ketanji Brown Jackson be confirmed to the Supreme Court NOW.

I can’t wait to celebrate her appointment with all of you — and then
continue our work to transform our justice system all across the country.

Love and appreciate you,

Shaun
