When Sylvia Mendez was young, she wasn't permitted to attend a local school in California because she was a Mexican American. That touched off Sylvia's lifetime of civil rights activism. Readers of this inspiring biography will learn how Sylvia and her family fought back against discrimination using the U.S. court system, eventually outlawing segregation in schools in California--and beyond. Accessible text, historical photographs, and a concluding timeline of this important activist and nurse will help readers appreciate her considerable contributions to civil rights.
