By 1940, more than 80 percent of Mexican American students in California went to so-called “Mexican” schools, even though no California law mandated such a separation. (Legal segregation in California schools did exist for two other groups: Asian Americans and Native Americans.)

"Eventually, Mexican American families in many California communities had enough. In a model of resistance that would be echoed in later anti-segregation movements, they took the schools to court. In fact, the very first legal victory against segregation in America was in San Diego County in 1930, when Mexican American parents in the Lemon Grove School District organized a boycott and successfully sued the schools for integration."
from your link

1930 or 1940 was before my time.  I didn't grow up in that era.
Sounds like you are making the case for 'Past Injustices'.
Will you be leading the Fight for Reparations of Those of Mexican Heritage?
