Fayetteville Area Habitat for Humanity hosts U.S. Supreme Court Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson for a one-on-one conversation

By Staff Report, posted 6 months ago

Fayetteville Area Habitat for Humanity is proud to host a one-on-one conversation between Brandon Price, CEO of Fayetteville Area Habitat for Humanity, and United States Supreme Court Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson about her new memoir, Lovely One, an unflinching account of her life and world, tracing her family’s ascent from segregation to her historic confirmation on America’s highest court as the first female Black Justice within the span of one generation.

As the first Black woman to serve on the Supreme Court, Justice Jackson offers a moving, candid reflection on her life. Through personal stories of perseverance, ambition, and hope, she explores the values and experiences that shaped her journey.

This event is part of the Fayetteville Area Habitat for Humanity's commitment to bringing people

together to build homes, communities, and hope. A safe, decent place to live is the cornerstone of a strong community. Their vision is a world where everyone has a decent place to live. Inspiring and deeply resonant, LOVELY ONE is a testament to the power of dreaming big.
