Duncan Tonatiuh, in telling this little-known story, has written a really important book - a must-have for school libraries everywhere. The true story of the Mendez family's successful fight against desegregated schools in post-World War II California is a rich source for conversations in the classroom about fairness, justice, prejudice, and historical chapters in our country's checkered past. As a school board member in a highly diverse Northwest suburb of Chicago with a large population of Latino immigrant families, and where more than 60 languages are spoken in the homes of our students, I have successfully read this book in dual-language and general ed classrooms around the district. This picture book has sparked deep, authentic, and brave conversations about race in classrooms with children as young as 8. I will be reading it in junior high classrooms as well in the coming weeks. I would recommend previewing the book starting with the front cover. It's very telling, but not at all surprising, that when asked what's going on in the picture, white children will say things like, "The children are not friends," whereas any brown child will say, "The white kids don't like the other kids," or "The white kids are superior - and I don't know why. They don't like the black kids." It's heartbreaking to hear this out of the mouths of 3rd and 4th graders, but allows children to voice what is their reality in this deeply divided country. And it's a chance to reassure them that light skin color doesn't make anyone superior. Another white 4th grader said, "I wouldn't swim there either if Mexicans aren't allowed to," in response to a picture of a segregated swimming pool. That comment provided an opportunity to talk about how we all can make choices and be counted when we stand up for what is fair. And that led to a conversation about the importance of participating in our democracy by understanding the issues and then voting. Another part of the book mentions Amicus Curiae briefs filed in support of the suit by organizations representing Latinos, Japanese, Jews, and the NAACP. It provides an opportunity to talk about historical discrimination - against the Jews and Japanese during WWII, and of course Blacks throughout US History. I told them about being called anti-semitic names as a young Jewish girl growing up in the 60s and about working at a large corporation that didn't hire Italians or Catholics (never mind Blacks or Jews) in the 1950s and on my very first day of work there in 1981 was "treated" to an antisemitic comment. This broadening of the conversation beyond children with black and brown skin really allowed the children to understand that the issue of fairness is broad-based. One Greek boy asked if Greeks were discriminated against in the past in our country. Knowing my history, I was able to tell him yes, a long time ago. He seemed almost relieved to know that he wasn't left out. Children of this age have such a finely honed sense of fairness, that being included is important to them. Finally, it's the story of a brave family who took on the injustice of a segregated educational system and, through perseverance, succeeded in fully integrating California schools seven years before Brown v The Board of Education, so that not only little Mexican children could go to desegregated schools, but so could all children, whether they be Japanese, Black, Jewish or from any other group. It was clear that the discussion and the responses from the children were reassuring to them all, but most especially to the children with brown skin who learned, if they had any doubt, that their teachers, friends, and classmates are solidly on their side. I cannot thank Duncan Tonatiuh enough for this beautiful, affirming book.
Prior to reading this book, I didn't know that school desegregation started with Mexican-American children. This book tells the story of an important and not well known part of American history. Children will relate to Sylvia Mendez's feelings. I particularly appreciated that the book showed that her parents had to work hard to secure justice for her, and that they didn't give up. Cleverly illustrated. This is a good book for an adult and child to read together and discuss.
I can't say enough about this book. It's amazing and a great book for ANY grade level. And I mean any. The message is important, relevant (about racial discrimination and equal access to education), but it's also a story that is rarely included in history texts. The illustrations are different from what you'd see on typical storybooks, but I have used this in multiple classrooms (I have worked as a teacher in 3-5th grade) and they can be used to encourage even more discussion.Due to the important subject matter and the accessible language used by the author, I could see this book being used for grades K-12 for sure.
Wonderful book! Many of us are really not aware of the plight of the Mexican pioneerswho fought for desegregation! It is part of our history, told with the honesty of the writerwho portrays the emotions and reality of its characters. It is enhanced throughbeautiful illustrations..,that make this story compelling-- both for young readers as well as adults.It allows us to look into the window in the life of a Mexican family and of their determination to bringus the singular opportunity to enjoy the equality of human rights, within the contextof our singular culture. I highly recommend you have a copy of this book in your library!
This is such an important book. What separate and unequal looks and feels like to kids is clear, stark and heartfelt. The reader will clearly understand why this lawsuit was necessary and empathize with the kids and the families who took action in 1947, seven years before Brown v. Board of Education. Kids of all ages should read this book, even those who are above the grade level specified, for insight into the civil rights struggle for people of color. There are lots of discussion opportunities here. There is nothing like this on the market. Bravo!
I love the part about her being an American citizen who spoke perfect English. The law is always going to be a solution for social change. I love the part about change. I love the part about Sylvia's relationship with her father. I thought of the courtroom and law and the legal system and I thought this is such a well-written children's book. I love page 34 so much I wanted to quote the whole page this children's book is excellent!
Every school should have this book and its lessons should be taught in elementary schools and at home. When my attention was drawn to this book and the fact that the desegregation fight began with the Latino community I had to buy this book. I am a lawyer and was a child during the civil rights fight yet I was unaware that the first desegregation victory was not brown vs. board of education. A third grader could read this book him/herself. It is appropriate to read to second graders at the same time black history month is celebrated. It describes how persistent one has to be to attain justice, but that other good citizens will help you, and that justice (sometimes--my edit) will prevail. The artwork is Latino style and the text is straightforward. I am buying 2 copies -- one for each of my upcoming third grade teachers-,in the hopes they will cover this in class. Though we live in a community with a substantial Guatemalan population, the vocal parent have succeeded in excluding Latino-American history from the agenda. I am Caucasian and my children are from Guatemala. And the more things change the more they stay the same.
