Current event.. D:

LATE.

July wasn't really that easy to pick a good event. Ever since the death of Michael Jackson, so many other famous celebrities and athletes have been dying. However, I think an important event that has gone in [late] July was the election of Sonia Sotomayor as a Supreme Court justice. I can honestly admit that I don't know much about this event nor have I put much effort into researching about it, but I know that it has and will make a lasting impact on our country. Sonia Sotomayor is a Puerto Rican American, raised in the Bronx, and was the first Latina to serve on the Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit. Sotomayor is also a victim of type one diabetes. Despite her health and racial conditions, she was still able to make her way as a nominee to the Supreme Court, eventually becoming a justice.
