[ESSENCE @Essence]

As America celebrates its 250th birthday, ESSENCE is honored to unveil the first magazine cover of Supreme Court Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson’s historic career. 

As the first Black woman to serve on the nation’s highest court, there is no better moment to celebrate her extraordinary legacy. Ketanji Brown Jackson represents the American Dream and serves as a powerful voice for those simply seeking the God-given birthrights promised to every American.

We are proud to feature her on the cover of this special double issue of the newly reimagined ESSENCE magazine. Be sure to pick up this historic collector’s edition when it hits newsstands.

Magic Johnson on how special this Knicks team is:

Magic: “I don’t wanna hear no talk about Giannis, or no other player coming to this team. This is a great team. I’ve watched a lot of basketball. The way these guys love each other. Play for each other. Pull for one another. You’re not gonna see this anywhere else. The, grit, the toughness that’s how they beat you. Together.”

Stephen A: “You’re telling me, this team, as presently constructed, you wouldn’t change—”

Magic: “Nope.”

Stephen A: “Even if they don’t win the Finals, no changes?”

Magic: “You keep em together and make small changes. This team knows how to play so well with each other. And off of Brunson. Everybody is comfortable in their role. KAT could start for another team tomorrow. OG can go to another team and be a star. But he’s good to play his role. Bridges too. And Hart, no 2 guard rebounds like Josh Hart. So you’ve got the pieces, and they’re all happy.”

Stephen A: “But—”

Magic: “Now, if you trade for Giannis, how many dudes you gotta give up just to get him? It’s a different team now. The whole team changes.”

Stephen A: “That’s true.”

Magic: “This team. I love this team. I love the Knicks. They play basketball right. Don’t change.”
