We are all proud of you Justice Sotomayor. Coming from Harlem
and having Puerto Rican and Black friends who grew up in your
project and attended Cardinal Spellman High School, I personally
know just how far you have come.
In New York City, many Puerto Ricans look like Blacks and many
Blacks look like Puerto Ricans. But Justice Sotomayor you show all
America’s children that they are all equal and should therefore be
given an equal chance and opportunity at succeeding based on their
own merits and hard work.
