Supreme Court Nominee Jackson Brown Can’t Define ‘Woman’ Because ‘I’m Not a Biologist’

In her Supreme Court confirmation hearing Tuesday, Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson declared that she could not define the word “woman” even though her fellow leftists repeatedly gushed over the fact that she is the first black woman nominee.

Asked by Sen. Marsha Blackburn (R-TN) to provide the definition of the word “woman,” Jackson replied “No. I can’t.”

“You can’t?” Blackburn responded in surprise.

“Not in this context,” Jackson returned. I’m not a biologist.”

Earlier, Judge Jackson had no problem talking about the historical significance of her nomination as a “woman,” and never questioned the use of the word.

Leftists now refuse even to define what a woman is. So much for them being the champions of women’s rights.
 
The left destroyed women’s lives for half a century under the pretense of “liberating” them from domestic slavery: promoting a sexual libertinism that did nothing but devalue them; pushing them to murder their unborn; pushing them to prioritize high-powered careers over family; triggering an explosion of pornography that victimizes women but claims to empower them; and now literally erasing them out of existence by refusing to define “woman.”
 
The left is throwing women entirely under the bus to push the next level of gender ideology.

Jackson Claims Inspiration from Critical Race Theory, The 1619 Project, & Black Lives Matter

During a January 20, 2020 lecture to the University of Michigan Law School in observance of Martin Luther King Day, Jackson cited Faces at the Bottom of the Well — a book authored by Derrick Bell, the nominal founder of Critical Race Theory (CRT) — as a publication that had inspired and instructed her during her younger days. The book argues that America’s systemic racism essentially consigns black people to the bottom of the nation’s financial and social hierarchy. Said Jackson:

“Professor Derrick Bell, who was a civil rights lawyer and the first tenured African-American professor at Harvard Law School, wrote a book in the early 1990s about the persistence of racism in American life that he entitled Faces At the Bottom of the Well. My parents had this book on their coffee table for many years, and I remember staring at the image on the cover when I was growing up; I found it difficult to reconcile the image of the person, who seemed to be smiling, with the depressing message that the title and subtitle conveyed. I thought about this book cover again for the first time in forty years when I started preparing for this speech, because, before the civil rights gains of the 1960s, black women were the quintessential faces at the bottom of the well of American society, given their existence at the intersection of race and gender — both of which were highly disfavored characteristics.”

Jackson also said she had “drawn heavily” from the many “excellent insights” of another leading CRT advocate: Derrick Bell’s widow, Janet Dewart Bell.

In addition, Jackson cited The 1619 Project of Nikole Hannah-Jones and The New York Times as another inspirational work, and she voiced no disagreement with the Hannah-Jones’ thesis that America had been founded chiefly on a devotion to racism and slavery.
