"A Latina Judge's Voice" [Jonathan Adler]
Today's NYT reports on a lecture given in 2002 by Judge Sonia Sotomayor on "A Latina Judge's Voice." In these remarks, Judge Sotomayor embraces the idea that the race and gender of a judge will and should influence that judge's decisions and suggests that there are no "objective" legal rules, only various perspectives. The speech is available here. Orin Kerr and I have comments on the Volokh Conspiracy here and here.
