Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson, President Biden's Supreme Court nominee, praised the controversial 1619 Project and its author Nikole Hannah-Jones during a Martin Luther King, Jr. Day address at the University of Michigan two years ago.
In a January 2020 lecture, titled, "Black Women Leaders In The Civil Rights Movement Era And Beyond," Jackson described Hannah-Jones as an "acclaimed investigative journalist" and highlighted Hannah-Jones’ "provocative" assertion that "the America that was born in 1776 was not the perfect union that it purported to be."
A transcription of the lecture was published Thursday by The Daily Wire.
