#brown v board of Ed

[historysisco]

On This Day in History February 3, 1964: A one day boycott by Black and Puerto Rican public school students takes place in New York City. Organized by Bayard Rustin, the boycott centered along Black and Puerto Rican areas and in total almost 45% of the public school body were absent. What were these students protesting?

The students were against the racial imbalance in their schools due to the Jim Crow racial views of the era. While the 1954 Brown v. Board of Education case ruled school segregation unconstitutional, many NYC's public schools remained seperate and unequal. 69 years later there are still many schools that suffer from the same racial imbalance in certain neighborhoods.

Women at P.S. 69 in Jackson Heights protesting the busing of African-American students from schools in Brooklyn, September 28, 1959. The Board of Education said that this was necessary because of overcrowding in Brooklyn, but it also was doubtless in response to the Supreme Court's ruling in Brown v. Board of Education. This prefigured the vehement anti-busing protests of the 1960s.

David I. Arkin was a teacher in Los Angeles in the late 1940s and early ’50s. He lost that job in the Red Scare when he refused to cooperate with McCarthy’s investigation of “un-American activities.”* So Arkin made a living as a painter, writer, and lyricist. He wrote “Black and White” in 1954 and Pete Seeger recorded a version of it a few years later, but it didn’t hit the charts until Three Dog Night’s version in 1972.

GOP Senate nominee tries to walk back lifetime of anti-abortion extremism

Sam Brown, the Republican nominee for Senate in Nevada, has been backpedaling as fast as he can from his political history as an anti-abortion activist, trying to convince the pro-abortion-rights state that it’s Democratic Sen. Jacky Rosen who’s the extremist. His latest effort is an op-ed in the Las Vegas Sun, published this past Sunday, in which he pledges to oppose a national abortion ban if it comes before Congress. However, he goes on to say that the Supreme Court’s 2022 decision overturning Roe v. Wade was good for Nevada—where abortion is legal until the 24th week of pregnancy—because the ruling “strengthened Nevada’s protections for abortion by confirming this choice is decided by states.” The people of Nevada aren’t convinced their abortion rights are safe, though. Last Friday, state officials declared that a measure to enshrine abortion rights in the state constitution will appear on the ballot in November, after a successful push by abortion-rights organizers. Their petition drive collected more than 200,000 signatures to get the measure on the ballot, easily surpassing the 103,000-signature threshold for qualifying. And if that weren’t clear enough, recent polling shows that 76% of Nevadans support the right to abortion in most or all cases—among the highest support in any state. In his op-ed, Brown also warns that Rosen “supports allowing the federal government to impose new rules on abortion, rules that have the potential to go further than Nevadans may desire.” This is, unsurprisingly, a lie. Rosen supports the Women’s Health Protection Act, which would codify Roe protections into law.  Brown built his political career in Texas as an extreme anti-abortion activist. While running for office there, he staunchly supported what was then the strictest abortion ban in the country, calling the abortion ban ​​“nonnegotiable.” And after moving to Nevada, he served as chairman of the executive board for Nevada Faith and Freedom Coalition, an anti-abortion group that has backed a federal ban and called Roe v. Wade a “moral atrocity.”  This is a candidate whose campaign website has a section labeled “resources for women” that lists crisis pregnancy centers—the health care “clinics” that “use misleading and deceptive resources … [aiming] to prevent or deter a person from seeking certain reproductive healthcare options, including abortion,” according to Medical News Today. That’s what he considers a resource for women. Brown also insists on his website that he has a litmus test for federal judges, and will vote only for those “who understand the importance of protecting life.” What seems likelier? Brown disavowing a political lifetime of anti-abortion extremism and activism, or him cynically pretending he’s on the side of women to win in this pro-abortion-rights state?

13 Worst Supreme Court Decisions of All Time

Where to place Dobbs, because is supremely qualified?

By Casey C. Sullivan, Esq. on October 14, 2015 | Last updated on March 21, 2019 Every once in awhile, the Supreme Court will decide a case that has widespread social and political impact, striking down discriminatory laws, upholding cherished institutions, protecting individual liberties. But not all Supreme Court opinions are great. Most are boring, technical, and of little import to the general public.

And some are downright terrible. For every Brown v. Board of Ed., there's a Buck v. Bell. Indeed, there are enough horrendous Supreme Court opinions to fill a book, or at least a blog post, and many of the Court's worst decisions still stand as good law. Here is our overview of the 13 most terrible, horrible, no good, very bad Supreme Court decisions.

OK, I just learned a little bit about the brown V Board of Education case that desegregated American schools, or at least started it. I have to admit that I was dumbstruck that the tiny little girl, Linda Brown who was denied entry in 1950 into a school was still alive up until 2018. She would probably still be alive today if she didn’t die at the untimely age of 75. I say this just so people are aware of how recently the civil rights era was.

Here’s an amazing video on the subject and, hopefully I’ll manage to get a screenshot of the protest posters against disaggregated schools that shows how little progress we have made at times.



Here, you see people protesting desegregation and note the poster that you can see on the right side. “Save our Christian America.“ The black community is just as high a percentage Christian as the white community. The difference in religion isn’t coming into play here. I’m sharing this with you because it’s clear that even back in the 1960s, a phrase like Christian nation, or Christian Values was already code for white supremacist values and the white supremacist vision of America. I don’t really know the story of how Christianity got so corrupted, but I thought this picture would be interesting to share. i’m sharing this with you because this horrifies me. This kind of stuff is some thing I wish I had learned when I was back in school and I think it’s the reason why critical race theory or teaching the true history of America is important because a lot of those same tactics that got used back then are being used now.

I was taught that Brown v Board of Education was about some guy that wanted to get into an all white college from middle to high school. Then I got to a college history class and learned that it was about a father wanting to send is daughter to an all white elementary school in Kansas and I felt so dumb and lied to

FUN FACT that I didn’t know until I took my History of American Education Policy course last semester: there are three Brown v. BOE court rulings. 

The first one is the most famous one, which was 13 parents filing on behalf of their 20 children, basically arguing the fact that the schools that were for black students were too far away, when their children had to pass schools for white students that were on the way, amongst other things. You’re specifically referring to Scott Brown’s 8 year old, third grade daughter, Linda Carol Brown who had to walk six blocks to her bus stop to get to school, while there was a school for white students that was seven blocks away. This is the court ruling that overturned Plessy v. Ferguson’s “separate but equal decision” that had schools segregated in the first place, BUT, they gave no timeline for when schools had to segregate, which leads us to Brown II.

Brown II ruled that desegregation must be done “with all deliberate speed,” which, what the FUCK does that mean? Nothing. That’s what. It basically said that schools had to desegregate, but it wasn’t something that had to be done immediately. There were public school systems (Prince Edward County School District in VA specifically) that literally CLOSED DOWN and turned into private schools so that black students wouldn’t be able to attend once the courts finally tried to force them to segregate. Since black students legally still had to get an education, they were forced to leave the county to get an education. 

Brown III is really fun, because here we see the return of Linda Carol Brown, now going by Linda Brown Smith, because, that’s right, she got married! And at this point now has children! Who are still being discriminated against because of the color of their skin! Now they were suing because of open enrollment in public schools, which I’m pretty sure is what we would equate today to school choice and voucher systems, which leads to more segregation. With open choice, schools could pick which students they accepted in their public schools, not saying that black students couldn’t attend, but they couldn’t attend and all the white students would go to one school, all the black students in another. It took until the late 90s I believe until they finally enforced the ruling that this went against Brown v. BOE, but I could be wrong.

PAUL STULL, and

LUCY McCLURE,

Plaintiffs,

v.

THE WEST VIRGINIA STATE BOARD OF EDUCATION, composed of HONORABLE W. W. TRENT, President, MARY H. DAVISSON, THELMA B. LOUDIN, RAYMOND BREWSTER, LYDIA C. HERN, W. R. VINEYARD, and MRS. DOUGLAS W. BROWN, and all other boards, officials, teachers and persons subject to the jurisdiction and control of STATE BOARD OF EDUCATION,

Defendants.

[handwritten] No. 242 [end handwritten]

COMPLAINT

To SAID HONORABLE COURT:

Now come the above named plaintiffs and complain of the above named defendants, and for a cause of action would show:

1. JURISDICTION is based upon existence of a "federal question" irrespective of the amount of money involved, in that this [handwritten open parenthesis] action arises under the Constitution and laws of the United States and involves purely and solely "civil rights" under and by virtue of the Civil Rights Act of 1871 and Section 24 (14) of the Judicial Code [28 U.S.C. 41 (14)], [handwritten close parenthesis] because this is an action brought to redress the deprivation of "civil rights" by persons acting under color of statutes and regulations of a state. The Court also has jurisdiction by virtue of Section 24 (1) of the Judicial Code [28 U.S.C. 41 (1)], in that the cause of action arises under the Constitution and laws of the United States and that as to each person for whom this action is brought the matter in contro-

[page 2]

flag means, in effect, to participate in a religious "rite" or ceremony and that the one saluting the flag ascribes salvation and protection to the thing or power which the flag stands for and represents, and that since the flag and the government it symbolizes are of the world and not of JEHOVAH GOD, it is wrong only for one in a covenant with JEHOVAH, such as each plaintiff and his children, to salute the flag, and for him to do so constitutes his denial of the supremacy of Almighty God, and contravenes God's express command set forth in Holy Write, which results in everlasting destruction by JEHOVAH of such person's right to life.

6. That plaintiffs and all other of Jehovah's witnesses for whom this action is brought at all times endeavored to instruct and inform their children of the truths including the above commandments set forth in the Word of God, the Bible. They desire to educate their children and bring them up as upright and sincere followers of Jesus Christ, all as it is their right, privilege and duty to do; that said children have been so instructed from an early age and are now and have been at all times material hereto sincere believers in God's commandments written in the Bible and have faithfully endeavored to obey such.

7. Plaintiffs are loyal to the United States and the State of West Virginia and willingly obey its laws, but they nevertheless believe that their first and highest duty is to their God and His commandments and law, and that as true followers of the Lord Jesus Christ they have no alternative except to obey God's commandments and to follow their conscientious convictions. They are willing, in lieu of participating in said flag-salute ceremony, periodically and publicly to subscribe to the following pledge, to wit:

"I have pledged my unqualified allegiance and devotion to Jehovah, the Almighty God, and to His Kingdom, for

[page 3]

pealed by the enactment of said Federal statute. In the event that the Court concludes that said State statutes and regulations have not been entirely annulled and repealed by the passage of said Federal statute, the plaintiffs say that the prescribed flag-salute ceremony for public schools of said State are void because expressly contrary to said Federal statute, which provides that only persons [underline] in uniform [/end underline] (of the United States Army and Navy) are required to give the military salute or engage in the flag-salute ceremony required by said State statutes and regulations thereunder promulgated by defendant-board. Furthermore, said Federal statute does not require a civilian, adult or child, to give any salute whatsoever to the national flag, and specifically does not require the giving of the salute or participation in the ceremony prescribed by the defendant-board. All that may be lawfully required of any civilian, adult or child, is merely "standing at attention", even though a child be in attendance at a public school in said State. That by reason of the foregoing the said State statutes and regulations thereunder promulgated by said defendant-board are void because in conflict with the United States Constitution and the above Federal statute.

26. That the application and enforcement of said State statutes and flag-salute regulations or any of them, against pupils who conscientiously object to participation in such ceremonial, do not instil love of liberty and democratic principles and devotion to country in the minds of the youth. The giving of the salute does not prove loyalty to the nation because any disloyal person can salute the flag so as to hide his disloyalty. The natural tendency of compelling a conscientious objector to give the salute is to hinder and obstruct loyalty to country because of attempted coercion and oppression of conscience. The enforce-

13

[page 4]

ment of said statutes and regulations in such manner diminishes respect and increases disrespect for flag and country by inspiring acts of lawlessness and violence against persons who lawfully elect to render obesiance and obedience exclusively to Almighty God, and it provides a means to conceal for every adherent of and conniver with the "fifth column" his true identity. See, in further corroboration of the above matters the booklet "God and the State", copy of which is attached hereto and made a part hereof, marked APPENDIX.

27. That the refusal of children of Jehovah's witnesses to salute the American flag or otherwise participate in the unlawfully and illegally required flag-salute ceremony does not present a clear and present danger against peaceful, lawful, proper and regular operation of any public school in said State, nor does such refusal present a clear and present danger against the peace of the law-abiding teachers and pupils of any such school. That there is no clear and present danger that any other pupils will refuse to salute the flag unless they become Jehovah's witnesses, which is most unlikely because of the extreme unpopularity of and persecution now prevailing against Jehovah's witnesses as result of persistent misrepresentation regarding their loyalty to [underlined] the government. [end underline]

28. That there is nothing in the faith or practices based upon the faith of persons for whom this action is brought that can be claimed to be contrary to morals, health, safety or welfare of the public, the State or the nation.

29. That because constitutionality and validity of State statutes of West Virginia are drawn in question, and because plaintiffs are asking for a preliminary injunction restraining the enforcement of said statutes, plaintiffs are entitled under Section 266 of the Judicial Code (28 U. S. C., Section 380, as

i remember learning about roe v wade in class. i so hoped and wished that it would not come to fruition, but it did. there is no way i can shake the despair of what it will be like for the women who have been sexually violated, simply cannot afford having a child, or even with the case of just not being ready to have one. there are medical practices that need abortions in order for women to live.

not only does this cut off access to safe abortions, but it opens up violations to our privacy as americans. roe v wade case indirectly is in comparison to interracial couples (plessy v ferguson, brown v board of ed) and lgbtq+ laws on the basis of our right to privacy. our 14th amendment is at stake.

Masterlist

Your heels click against the marble floor as you travel through the numerous halls at JSC, most of them adorned with pictures of previous rocket launches, landings, astronauts and commands. Your eyes trail down the row of photos before you stop on one. Apollo 10. Your husband’s first mission. You smile lightly as you gingerly touch the photo. He looked so young, you think to yourself, so handsome. But then again, he is still handsome, you lightly chuckle to yourself before a shove breaks you out of your thoughts. Whipping your head to the culprit, you see Tracy’s hair flowing behind her and stare at her in question. What is she doing here?

“Tracy?” You call out to the blonde but when she doesn’t respond or acknowledge you, you shrug your shoulders before making your way over to Ed’s office. Knocking on the door, you wait for a second before he tells you that you can come in.

“Hi honey, what are you doing here?” Ed’s hazel eyes look tired, hair strewed in different directions, as if he’s been running his hands through his otherwise normally neat hair. Closing the door, you make your way over to the desk and set down the brown paper bag before plopping a seat on the wooden furniture, lightly swinging your crossed legs.

“Just thought I would bring you lunch,” he moves to open the bag and takes a whiff, his eyes closing for a second, savoring the smell of his favorite burger joint, “was that Tracy I saw?” His eyes snap open as he lets out a sigh, pulling out the food and placing it on top of the bag.

“Yeah, she brought me Ed McMahon’s mug from California,” your brows raise as he waves the mug with his right hand. Taking the mug in your hand, you inspect it carefully. Surely that wasn’t the only reason she was here. Not after that stunt she pulled the other night on national tv.

“Why was she actually here, Ed?” Ed’s eyes flitter over to the board in thought and you seem to notice his pensive behavior, “is something wrong?”

“It’s nothing,” he mumbles, shaking his head and turning to look back at you with a smile, “have I ever told you how sexy you look sitting on my desk,” he mentions, his hands finding a place on your hips and you shove them away.

“Don’t change the subject honey, what’s going on?” Ed sighs in thought before slumping his shoulders.

“Trace and I got into an argument about having a camera crew up at Jamestown. She said her agent was wondering if they could tag along to get some footage,” he mentions and you scowl, your brows furrowing at the absurdity of the notion.

“That’s ridiculous. She should know that wouldn’t fly,” you reply as Ed nods his head, burger forgotten on the desk as the two of you discuss your long time friend.

“That’s what I said and she got pissy. Ever since she became famous, she’s become a pain in NASA’s ass. Missing training, debriefs, everything,” he frets as you nod. The Tracy you met was significantly different from the Tracy that now resides, “but it doesn’t matter. What matters is how beautiful my lovely wife looks, perched up on the desk and all,” he draws on as heat rises to your face, you look down as your hands play with the hem of your skirt while Ed’s eyes rake over your body, landing specifically on your exposed cleavage, “what do you think you’re doing wearing a shirt like that?”

“What do you mean?” Your innocence makes Ed’s cock twitch in his slacks. Afterall, it was one of the things that initially drew him into you after he and Karen split.

“Come here honey, sit on my lap,” he instructs, placing his hands back on your hips and sliding you off of the desk, you do nothing to stop him. His thumbs rub soothing circles on your hips as you wiggle on his thigh, trying to get comfortable against his leg.

“Ed, what do you think you’re doing?” You question as his lips travel down your neck, pressing feather light kisses against your skin, heat begins to pool in your lower stomach as your husband gives you attention.

“Just showing my wife some love,” he whispers against the shell of your ear, taking the cartilage in between his teeth as one hand moves up your side to grope your breast through your shirt. Gasping, your hips lightly roll against his slacks, Ed humming in content as he continues to pepper your soft skin with his lips. Opening up your shirt a little more, Ed dips his head to place kisses along your chest, paying special attention to the swell of your breasts. Adjusting yourself on his lap, you straddle his thigh, each leg on either side of his thigh as his hands resituate themselves onto your hips, slowly rocking your hips against his cloth covered thigh. Feeling the friction catch against your clit, you let out a little whimper, causing Ed to smirk against your skin.

“You like that baby?” You nod rapidly, your breathing hitches in your throat as your hands move up to his greying hair, burying his face into your chest while your hips cant against him, your arousal seeping through your underwear and onto his beige pants, “look at you, making a mess on me.” His hand slips below the edge of your skirt, deft fingers tracing up your thigh before lightly grazing across your clit, sending a jolt to your system as you become aware of your surroundings.

“Ed, the blinds are open and the door isn’t locked. Someone could see,” you whisper in a hushed voice as he shrugs, his tongue lapping at your pulse point while his fingers trace over your covered heat.

“Let them. I want my wife now,” he comments, bucking his hips up to prove a point, “but I want you to come undone first.” His lips press against yours in a passionate embrace as his fingers expertly work you. Slipping under your panties, he’s quick to find your special spot, a trait he had learned from you. Rubbing it in slow circles, he happily swallows your moans as his chest swells with pride that he could draw such intimate noises out of your. Moving his fingers deeper, his middle and index finger slowly slipping into your hole while his palm lays flat against your bundle of nerves.

“Jesus, Ed,” you whimper, bucking up into the palm of his hand as his long fingers pump inside of you, making a satisfying ‘squelch’ noise with each insert.

“Sweetheart, you’re soaking. All for me?” He questions, his fingers thrusting inside of your tight walls causing you to moan, resting your forehead into the crook of his neck, any thoughts of people walking in on you long gone.

“Yes sir,” you manage to squeak out, the mixture of the stimulation from his fingers and the palm of his hand starts to create a tight coil in your lower abdomen, “oh Ed,” he hums in content at your noises, his hand moving with more rigor to bring you closer to your release, “just like that. I’m cumming, Ed. Don’t stop,” you beg as he nods, not haltering his movements until your walls contract around his fingers, letting out a stifled moan against his vest, you rock your hips against his hand, coaxing you through your orgasm. Coming down from your high, you look into Ed’s eyes, pupils dilated with lust before kissing him. Slipping your hand down from his neck, your manicured hands trail down his front before coming to a stop, resting on top of his hardened member, barely contained by his khaki.

“Honey, don’t tease,” Ed grits through his teeth, hips slightly jutting up against your palm to get some friction. Smirking, your hands roll up his shirt to reveal the buckle of his belt and button of his pants. Quickly undoing the security of his pants, your hand shoves into the fabric, coming into immediate contact with his hard member and feeling the heat radiate off of his shaft.

“You’re so big, Admiral. I wonder if you’ll fit?” You ponder with a feign innocence as Ed’s eyes darken, the greenish hue long gone as the brown becomes prominent.

“Sweetheart, don’t use that tone with me,” he warns, his cock twitching underneath your touch as you rub him up and down, your arousal still unmistakeable.

“Or what, Ed? You’ll punish me?” You tease but the look on Ed’s face tells you he’s not joking around so you aren’t surprised when he reaches behind you and swipes his desk clean, knocking off random knick knacks before picking you up and placing your back flush against the top, his body resting comfortably between his legs.

“Look at you, ready to take me,” he muses, grabbing his shaft with his right hand and rubbing it against your sex, your mewls filling up the office as you shiver, taking delight in the feeling.

“Yes, baby. All for you,” you mumble, your head lolling to the side as he teases the tip against your opening.

“Are you ready sweetheart?”

“Please, Ed. Please fill me,” he smirks before shifting his weight from his stance to put power behind his trust, easily bottoming out in your cave, both of you moaning in unison. Grabbing your hips with his hands, Ed pulls your pelvic region against his, allowing for the two of you to be closer. Pulling out slightly, Ed’s hips snap back in, his grip having to tighten as each thrust would jolt you up against his desk, moans echoing the room.

“You gotta be quiet, honey. We don’t want anyone to come in,” he reminds you and your head whips to the door, suddenly paranoid.

“Ed, why would you say that?” Ed shakes his head, his hips rutting against your pelvis, thumbs circling your skin.

“It’s alright honey, they won’t come in unless I say so. Just gotta be quiet,” he leans over, his arms planting on either side of your head, lips sealing yours as your hips roll in unison. Ed’s broad chest easily covers yours as he lays on top of you, his thrusts shallow, taking his sweet time as the two of you enjoy each other’s company. Kissing down your neck, Ed inhales the soft but warm scent of your perfume while your hands occupy his hair, massaging his scalp.

“You know I love you right?” He whispers, his hips carrying a rhythm that satisfies both of your needs.

“I love you too, Eddie,” you state back in broken moans, the tip of his dick hitting just below your sweet spot, “give me more,” Ed raises an eyebrow before realigning his hips and thrusting back into you, his swollen head brushing against your cervix, sending a warm tingle up your spine, “right there,” your commands are all Ed needs to drive member into your cunt, and for someone who is used to giving out orders, boy does he love receiving them. As Ed’s hips pound into yours, he can’t help but watch in awe as your face contorts into bliss when your orgasm washes over you, “oh yes,” you manage to stutter out as his pelvis slowly rocks in and out, but the feeling of your walls spasming around him has his own orgasm on the brink.

“Need to cum.”

“Cum inside of me, baby.” He thrusts into you with more force, rattling the desk below you and him before he stills, heavily panting in your ear as his cum shoots into you, claiming you as his. After a minute of the two of you collecting your breaths and resting in each other’s embrace, his softening cock slips out, a whimper escaping your lips causing Ed to laugh.

“You’re so needy,” it comes as a taunt as he grabs a napkin to clean you up before cleaning himself, not noticing the pout on your lips.

“But I want a baby.” Ed smiles as he presses his lips to yours again, pulling you onto his lap as he sits down on his chair, arms wrapping protectively around you.

“And I’ll put a baby in you… Eventually.”

“You best keep your word, Admiral Baldwin.”

“Always, Mrs. Baldwin.”

[dontmeantobepoliticalbut]

On Saturday morning, Texas Senator John Cornyn tweeted a racist comment along with a share of former-President Barack Obama's statement regarding Friday's Supreme Court ruling to reverse Roe v. Wade.

Obama, making his statement on Twitter on Friday morning shortly after the ruling was handed down, said "Today, the Supreme Court not only reversed nearly 50 years of precedent, it relegated the most intensely personal decision someone can make to the whims of politicians and ideologues—attacking the essential freedoms of millions of Americans."

The following morning, Cornyn shared that statement from Obama to his own Twitter account adding "Now do Plessy vs Ferguson/Brown vs Board of Education."

Brown v. Board of Education, ruled on by the Supreme Court in 1954, did historical justice in wiping away the 1896 Plessy v. Ferguson ruling, making "separate but equal" rightfully unconstitutional.

Following Cornyn's initial tweet, which received tremendous heated backlash, he fired off another one saying "Thank goodness some SCOTUS precedents are overruled."

"Let's help out less intelligent fellow Americans out," one commenter said in response to Cornyn's initial tweet. "Plessy stood as law of the land longer than Roe. That was [John Cornyn's] point. Now if liberals are arguing Brown v. Board of Ed was wrongly ruled because of long standing precedent, then they should openly say so."

That comment was retweeted by Cornyn. The following replies were not.

One commenter tweeted a photo of Cornyn with the word "racist" in red over his chest.

Another commenter shared an archival photo of a Black man drinking from a water fountain labeled "colored" and asked "You miss this sort of thing?"

And yet another out of the thousands of similar commenters shared an illustration of a Klan hood next to a MAGA hat featuring the text "Evil doesn't die, it reinvents itself."

September 15 begins Hispanic Heritage Month — we’re kicking off the month by honoring a number of figures who historically have blazed a trail for the Hispanic American community

Fernando Valenzuela is a former MLB pitcher most famous for his time with the Los Angeles Dodgers from 1980-90. A Mexican immigrant, Valenzuela’s raw talent & colorful personality made him an instant hit with the Dodgers’ significant Latinx fanbase. The ensuing media frenzy became known as ‘Fernandomania’ and represented one of the first times in MLB history that a Hispanic player was a face of baseball. Valenzuela retired in 1997. In 2015, he became a naturalized American citizen.

Sonia Sotomayor is the first Latinx Supreme Court justice in U.S. history, having served since 2009. The daughter of Puerto Rican-born Americans, Sotomayor spent the bulk of her childhood being raised by a single mom in the Bronx, NY. Sotomayor graduated summa cum laude from Princeton in 1976 and earned a law degree from Yale Law School in 1979. Prior to being appointed to the Supreme Court by President Barack Obama, she was a federal judge for 17 years. Her SCOTUS tenure has been characterized by decisions emphasizing criminal justice reform and the civil rights of both defendants and minority communities.

Sylvia Mendez was just 8 years old when she became a civil rights icon. Growing up in 1940s California as the daughter of Mexican & Puerto Rican immigrants, Mendez was a central figure in the landmark 9th Circuit Court of Appeals case Mendez v. Westminster. The decision found that segregating Mexican American students into separate schools in California was unconstitutional and led to the desegregation of all public schools in the state. The arguments used in Mendez v. Westminster later served as a precursor for the 1954 landmark SCOTUS segregation case Brown v. Board of Ed. After childhood, Mendez went on to work as a nurse & a public speaker, and she was awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom in 2011.

In 2015, Raffi Freedman-Gurspan made history as the first openly transgender person to serve in the White House in U.S. history. A longtime activist & expert on matters pertaining to LGBTQ+ civil rights and gender equality, Freedman-Gurspan was born in Honduras and raised by adoptive parents in Massachusetts. After graduating college in 2009, she pursued activism on the state level in MA for a few years before being hired as a policy adviser at the National Center for Transgender Equality. Her work focused on a number of issues impacting trans Americans, including homelessness, immigration, & incarceration. From there, she served 2 years in the Obama admin, first as an outreach & recruitment director and then as the White House’s LGBT liaison.

Ellen Ochoa is an icon for Latinx women in STEM. An engineer, astronaut, and former director of the Johnson Space Center, Ochoa made history in 1993 when she became the first Hispanic woman to travel to space while aboard the space shuttle Discovery. In her career as an astronaut, Ochoa logged approx 1,000 hours in space across 4 missions. Ochoa, who is a recipient of NASA's Distinguished Service Medal, was inducted into the U.S. Astronaut Hall of Fame in 2017.

Arturo Alfonso Schomburg (1874-1938) was an author, historian, activist, and leading intellectual of the Harlem Renaissance. Schomburg was an Afro Latino of Puerto Rican, Black, and German heritage. Over his career, he worked tirelessly to identify, document, and preserve elements of Black history & culture, including art, manuscripts, slave narratives, and other artifacts. The works he amassed are now a collection in the New York Public Library at the Schomburg Center for Research in Black Culture in Harlem. Schomburg was once quoted as saying, ‘Pride of race is the antidote to prejudice.’

At 88 years young, Rita Moreno remains a treasure of the stage and screen. She is the only Hispanic actor in history to complete the hallowed EGOT, having won an Emmy, Grammy, Oscar, and Tony award between 1962 and 1977. Her Oscar win, for the supporting role of Anita in 1961’s ‘West Side Story,’ remains her most iconic part. In recent decades, Moreno is perhaps best known for starring in the Netflix reboot of ‘One Day at a Time.’ In addition to her acting awards, Moreno has also been a Kennedy Center honoree and was awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom in 2004.

Sylvia Rivera was an American icon of the early LGBTQ+ liberation movement, with a specific focus on activism for LGBTQ+ people of color and LGBTQ+ people experiencing homelessness. Together with her friend Marsha P. Johnson, Rivera was a fixture in New York City’s radical activist and cultural scene in the 1970s and ‘80s. Rivera & Johnson founded STAR (Street Transvestite Action Revolutionaries), a local collective that provided housing and aid to young LGBTQ+ New Yorkers at the time. Rivera, who was of Venezuelan & Puerto Rican descent, died in 2002 at the age of 50. In 2005, the corner of Hudson & Christopher streets in NYC’s Greenwich Village was renamed Sylvia Rivera Way.
