Méndez v. Westminster  

Définition

  • Gonzalo Méndez, William Guzman, Lrank Palomino, Thomas Estrada, and Lorenzo Ramirez filed suit against the Westminster, Garden Grove, Santa Ana, and El Modena School Districts in California on March 2, 1945, for not allowing Mexican children to attend Anglo schools because they were “forbidden, barred and excluded from attending any other school in said District or System solely for the reason that said children or child are of Mexican or Latin descent” (Méndez v. Westminster School District, 1946). Attorneys on both sides effectively presented their arguments. [Source: Encyclopedia of Bilingual Education; Méndez v. Westminster]
