Description
The book recounts how the League of United Latin American Citizens (LULAC) lobbied President Franklin Delano Roosevelt to essentially circumvent the federal court decision in Andrade (1935), which ruled that the Mexican petitioners were not "free white person[s]." The decision presented a roadblock to Mexicans seeking US naturalization. FDR used administrative law to have Mexicans classified as "white" for naturalization purposes.
