Small things

are what therapists sometimes notice.

Reviewing a flick, a White/(Jewish?) newpaper writer notes that it "also beautifully captures the milieu of the Bronx and its rich Latino life."

Rich Latino life.

Why "rich?" What makes Latino life rich?  As opposed to other kinds of ethnic life.

Would he use the same word for, say, White life? "The milieu of suburban Evanston and its rich White life?" If not, why not?

What's going on with this "rich?"

PS. A few days later. NOW I know....It's that HispaniLatina bitch Sotomayor:


  “I would hope that a wise Latina woman with the richness of her experiences would more often than not reach a better conclusion than a white male who hasn’t lived that life.” 
Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor, in several speeches she gave in 1994, 1999, 2001, 2002 and 2004, according to CNN.[ Sotomayor's 'wise Latina' comment a staple of her speeches, June 8, 2009]
