You Can't Always Expect A

I See Myself As An Educator.

I Am Really Proud To Be A Part In Whatever Way Of Women Becoming Active In The Political Scene. I Think It Was The First Time That People Came To Terms With The Reality Of What It Meant To Have A Senate Made Up Of 98 Men And Two Women.

I Think There's More Support Today. I Think There's Better Understanding Today. And There's A Better Appreciation For The Fact That If Any Community Is Going To Prosper, If Any Community Is Going To Be Seen At Its Best, That The Women In That Community Have To Be Viewed As Equally As Important As The Men. And [women] Have To Be Able To Live Outside Of Boundaries That Are Placed On Them Because Of Their Gender. As Well As Their Race Or Their Religion.

We Have A History Of Gender And Racial Bias On Our Court That Continues To Undermine The System. Excluding Individuals Based On Race Is Antagonistic To The Pursuit Of Justice.

I Did What My Conscience Told Me To Do, And You Can't Fail If You Do That.
