Can an eight-year-old girl make a difference? Learn how at that age Sylvia Méndez became the face of the landmark case to desegregate California schools to Latinx children in the 1940s and inspired people of all ages to fight for change. La llamada de Sylvia Méndez mixes powerful poetry, charming music, and a moving story in a testament to integrity, inclusion, and friendship.
