INAUGURAL LATINO JUDGES ASSOCIATION MENDEZ v. WESTMINSTER MOOT COURT PROJECT DISCUSSION
The Gap In Bilingual Education, the Impact of Aspira v. BOE, and How the Landmark Mendez Case Inspired It All
In a special co-production of the Historical Society of the New York Courts podcast and Amici, the podcast program of the NYS Unified Court System, an insightful panel discusses with Host John Caher the growth of the Latino Judges Association, a little known case that ended school desegregation in California and set the stage for future civil rights victories, an upcoming moot court competition, and explores the differences between bilingual education and English as a Second Language (ESL). Three sitting judges – Supreme Court Justices Patria Frias-Colón and Wilma Guzman and Court of Claims Judge Linda Mejias-Glover – and Daniel O. Sierra of the Historical Society offer insight and perspective.
