Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson talks career, deep love for family & new memoir

Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson made history in June 2022, when she was sworn in as the first Black woman to serve on the nation’s high court. Now, the 116th Supreme Court justice is telling her story in a new memoir, “Lovely One.” Justice Jackson’s book tour recently stopped in Atlanta at the Atlanta Symphony Hall. That’s where “Closer Look,” show host Rose Scott and the Justice had a one-on-one conversation in front of a live audience. Justice Jackson reflected on her journey from Miami, Florida to the Supreme Court. She also talked about facing fear head-on, the power of mentorship and why her foundation is rooted in the love and support of her family.
