This episode of Big Blend Radio features litigator Marty Glick, co-author of “The Soledad Children: The Fight to End Discriminatory IQ Tests.” During the 1960s, California public schools used English-language, culturally biased IQ tests to determine placements for students. This resulted in over 100,000 non-native English speakers and other minority students being routed into special education tracks. “The Soledad Children” is a new book written by attorneys Marty Glick and Maurice Jourdane who fought against IQ test injustice, and it recounts the story of how they achieved a landmark win for farmworker children. https://www.martyglick.com/
