Don’t be fooled by the jurisprudence that she’s got, she’s still, she’s still “Sonia from the Bronx.” However, it is unclear whether she know J-Lo personally. Regardless, 60 Minutes recently re-air its interview Supreme Court Justice Sonio Sotomayor. Here is a description of the story:
In the 223 years of the Supreme Court of the United States, it is fair to say there has never been a justice like Sonia Sotomayor. Among other things, she’s the first Hispanic on the court, she’s the daughter of Puerto Rican parents who settled in the Bronx — that New York melting pot that pours out streetwise kids and American success stories.
Sotomayor, now 58 years old, calls the streets of her childhood “my beloved world” and when we aired this story in January, she was about to come out with a memoir of the same name. She told us that, the neighborhood gave a poor girl, with a serious illness, a chance to serve and an opportunity to become one of the most powerful women in America.
