The year was 1923, and Alice, a Native Paiute (Nuwuvi) teenager in California, dreamed about learning from teachers, making new friends, and being respected for who she was. So when the school board refused to let her and six other Native students attend, she decided to speak up, and she sued for her right to an equal education. \u003ci\u003eAlice Piper Speaks Up\u003c\/i\u003e, the first book dedicated to this major champion of civil rights, features new research into Alice's life and court case. Each chapter begins with lyrical verse and full-color illustrations that invite readers into Alice's story. Paired with the poems are visually engaging sections filled with keyword definitions, historical context, timelines, primary sources, and questions that help readers relate Alice's experience to their own lives. The text connects Alice's case to larger themes about education, Native rights, and movements for school desegregation across the United States.
