Congresswoman LINDA SANCHEZ has already pointed out. wanted to go to a certain school but California law specifically prohibited Japanese Americans. Mongolian Americans. and Asian Americans from attending school with white children. But it left out African American and Mexican American children. and believe it or not. that really is what the court did hang its hat on. So we have a Japanese American family and a Mexican American family. and Earl Warren comes into the picture because he is Governor of the great State of California.
