Sonia Sotomayor Pushes Pro-Career, Anti-Princess Agenda on Sesame Street
Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor stopped by Sesame Street last week to offer young girls and boys some dream shattering-career advice, which basically boils down to: you'll never, ever be a princess, so start studying for law school now. The clip is actually adorable, and shows Sotomayor defining, in very kid friendly language, what exactly a career is ("a job you train for, or prepare for and plan on doing for a long time") and explaining various acceptable, non-princess job options, which are, "a teacher, a lawyer, a doctor, an engineer, and even a scientist." Even a scientist!
Of course, we all know that if you train hard and dream big you can actually become a princess and have cool NSFW things like this happen to you. But in case that doesn't work out, a college degree in one of the above fields is a decent back-up plan.
