Brown to Black: The Politics of Judicial Appointments for Latinos

I am honored that my White House perspective on judicial appointments was deemed interesting enough to be included in the Berkeley La Raza Law Journal commemorating the October 2001 Symposium on Latino/a representation in the judiciary. Of course, it is one thing to speak frankly into the ether, and a totally different matter to have those remarks become a permanent record of one's views. Nonetheless, there are still too few Latinos in critical positions of government not to share my observations of the federal judicial appointments process.
