Sonia Sotomayor spoke to the University of California, Berkeley School of Law in 2001.
(CNN) — Since President Obama named Sonia Sotomayor Tuesday as his pick for the Supreme Court, much attention has been given to a 2001 speech the federal appeals court judge gave at the University of California, Berkeley, School of Law.
One line in particular from that address has sparked sharp reactions from critics: “I would hope that a wise Latina woman with the richness of her experiences would more often than not reach a better conclusion than a white male who hasn’t lived that life.”
The following is a complete text of the speech, which was delivered on October 26, 2001, at a legal symposium titled “Raising the Bar: Latino and Latina Presence in the Judiciary and the Struggle for Representation.” The event was co-sponsored by the La Raza Law Journal, the Berkeley La Raza Law Students Association, the Boalt Hall Center for Social Justice, and the Center for Latino Policy Research. The speech, “A Latina Judge’s Voice,” was also published in the La Raza Law Journal in 2002.
