Justice for my people the Dr. Hector P. Garcia story
This film tells the story of Dr. Hector P. Garcia--Mexican Revolution refugee, medical doctor to the barrios, decorated war veteran, civil rights activist and presidential confidante--who fought to bring attention to the Mexican American civil rights movement. Dr. Garcia confronted the violators of the civil rights of "his people" using the methods of peaceful protest and legal recourse contemporaneously employed by Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. His achievements illuminate the critical issues of four decades of Mexican-American advancement, and interviews with scholars, contemporaries, and adversaries place his struggle as and for an American minority in their historical context.
