Can anyone find video of Sotomayor's original "wise latina" remark on the internet?

Been looking for the comment where she says, "I shouldn't say this because cameras are here....."

I am able to find TONS of videos of her "explaining" her comments, but the original video seems to be gone (scrubbed?) from the internet.

This article says the speech was in 2001, so I’m a little dubious that any video from that time was ever posted on youtube during her confirmation hearings.

According to a website called Newsy:
During a lecture at UC Berkeley in 2001, Sotomayor said: “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.”

This might give you better search parameters. I can't find anything but video of her explanations. Was there actual audio or video played anywhere of her saying that, or were her comments found in a transcript?

On a quick search, that’s what I found also, video of her confirmation hearing.
