  Sylvia never expected to be at the center of a landmark legal battle; all she wanted was to enroll in school. 
   
   
    
  Aki never expected to be relocated to a Japanese internment camp in the Arizona desert; all she wanted was to stay on her family farm and finish the school year. 
   
   
    
  The two girls certainly never expected to know each other, until their lives intersected in Southern California during a time when their country changed forever. 
   
   
    
  Here is the remarkable story based on true events of Sylvia Mendez and Aki Munemitsu, two ordinary girls living in extraordinary times. When Sylvia and her brothers are not allowed to register at the same school Aki attended and are instead sent to a "Mexican" school, the stage is set for Sylvia's father to challenge in court the separation of races in California's schools. Ultimately, Mendez vs. Westminster School District led to the desegregation of California schools and helped build the case that would end school segregation nationally. 
   
   
    
  Through extensive interviews with Sylvia and Aki—still good friends to this day—Winifred Conkling brings to life two stories of persistent courage in the face of tremendous odds.

  Joel Chandler Harris: Uncle...

  I am the narrator of this wonderful series of Uncle Remus stories.  As a small boy in 1944 New Orleans, one of my fondest memories is of my father telling me Uncle Remus stories before my Sunday nap time. His strong French/Cajun accent just made them more memorable and I would drift off to sleep seeing Br'er Rabbit and Br'er Bear in my dreams having all sorts of adventures. Thank you dad! These recordings are a sort of tribute to him and the entire world of Uncle Remus, that genial old storyteller. who came from another time. Maybe not a better time, but certainly one that knew how to spin entertaining tales about the 'criteers' that the little 6 year old boy (and many of us adults!) love to listen to. The 'Brer Rabbit and 'Brer Fox and the others sound a lot like the people all around us. They tell stories about personalities and faults and virtues in a way that is unique to Uncle Remus. So, as the shadows grow longer outside, draw up a rocking chair next to the little boy, settle back and listen to the wise old man tell these stories. These 17 stories were specially chosen from Uncle Remus: His Songs and Sayings and include The Wonderful Tar-Baby Story, Miss Cow falls a Victim to Mr. Rabbit; Mr. Fox and the Deceitful Frogs; Mr. Rabbit grossly deceives Mr. Fox and lots of others.
