In this article, I posit that diverse leaders in terms of culture, race, ethnicity, gender, and sexual orientation are needed in all aspects of society. Diversity in leadership is a compelling interest for society, and I propose that, in particular, those with mujerista, womanist, or feminist internalized attitudes and identities have much to offer given their lived experiences, consequential awareness, and commitment to social justice. These qualities lead to effective leadership. I present Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor as a case in point—a woman who exemplifies all of these qualities
