It has been a while but I guess I forgot to write about this event. It was an extra credit assignment for history but it turned out to be more than just that. There were about 5-6 professors at the panel discussion speaking on the topic of Obama and Sotomayor and racism. It was very insightful to hear the professors speak regarding the issues and it encouraged many of the audiences to contribute by asking questions and speak their mind. With Obama’s election and Sotomayor being the first Hispanic Supreme Court Justice broke racial barriers that were unheard of back in the day and definitely gave power to the minorities everywhere. This was definitely worth going to.
