On Wednesday, Senator Cory Booker gave an impassioned speech for Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson during the Senate Judiciary Committee hearing that brought tears to the courtroom—and my living room. After two days and 20 hours of aggressive questioning from the GOP, Booker defended how Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson earned her spot as the first Black woman to be nominated to the supreme court, and highlighted how meaningful this moment in history is.

Judge Jackson displaying her “extraordinary demeanor” shows not just her abilities as a judge—lest we forget, Brett Kavanaugh is a judge, too, and he defo isn’t the poster boy of grace—but the unrelenting pressure put on Black women to be infallible and remain cool, calm, and collected while under attack.

Senator Booker’s comments are a reminder that Black women often face double standards in the workforce: they are expected to have more credentials, offer more proof of their abilities, and jump through more hoops to reach higher leadership positions—and all the while, receive this unfair treatment an additional criticism with a smile on their face.
