Ketanji Brown Jackson delivered her first speech as a fully confirmed Supreme Court Justice.

Speaking from the White House lawn, Jackson noted the significance of the moment: "It has taken 232 years and 115 prior appointments for a Black woman to be selected to serve on the Supreme Court of the United States. But we've made it. We've made it. All of us".

Jackson said she is "standing on the shoulders of my own role models, generations of Americans who never had anything close to this kind of opportunity".

Jackson will officially join the Court this summer after Justice Stephen Breyer retires.
