Pages : 141
Book Description
Without Prejudice , subtitled, Nailing the Standard, has crystallized from the chronic, ongoing legal experiences of the writer, borne from two decades of a personal overwhelming struggle for justice. Many innocent people go to the grave shafted, with no fair affordable legal path to challenge a decision of the legal system. The intent to publish this book is to have my story of being prescribed and precluded from natural justice told. The book s content is explosive. It details how individuals in highly regarded positions of power and trust contort the law. A true story that has been denied the opportunity of being put to air. However, behind the contempt for the failing system, and cynicism of the writer, rests the hope of answered prayer. People power, justice for all, in accordance with there is only one authority on Earth. Indeed an intriguing read that confronts the administration of law and order in our society. You be the Judge.

He and the other Mexican American students were told they had to go to a new, separate school. A school just for them. A school where they would not hold back the other students. But Roberto and the other students and their families believed the new school's real purpose was to segregate, to separate. They didn't think that was right, or just, or legal. This historical fiction picture book by Sibert award-winning author Larry Dane Brimner and Pura Belpré award-winning illustrator Maya Gonzalez follows Roberto and the other immigrant families on their journey in 1931 as they battle against separation and prejudice in one of America's landmark segregation cases.
