Let’s have a look at the rest of her remarks, following the “wise Latina” section that’s being quoted everywhere without context:

That just does not look so horribly “racist” to me.

Seems OK … until that last line:

“I simply do not know exactly what that difference will be in my judging. But I accept there will be some based on my gender and my Latina heritage.”

The more context I read, the more troubling statements I see.
