NSQS - Is Being Young and Gifted enough for a Black person to be Appointed to the Supreme Court?
Manage episode 374677267 series 3503898
"Oh, but my joy of today
Is that we can all be proud to say
To be young, gifted, and black
Is where it's at"
A Black woman Supreme Court Justice. [Pause for applause.]
Ketanji; A name that is making history and stands proud in its Blackness. In this episode, JAG and TLeake discuss this historic nomination as the moment reminds them of both the Nina Simone song, "To Be Young Gifted and Black" and the age-old Black proverb, "we got to work twice as hard to get half as far." Join the discussion and celebrate the woman!
