reply :walkout the movie
base on what im reading about your article. I am
of native american navajo and born and was raised in EAST LOS ANGELES CA> I attended.Garfield high school, and I am very proud of where i came from
and let me further say how many famous people attended eastside schools ?
many famous actors ,sport alumni, in fact i had Edward j. Olmos,Oscar Delahoya Mike Garret Rosie Grier,Anthony Quinn, Antonio Veragosa,los lobos as well, we are very proud people .To answer your question about restrooms being close during lunch? YES they were my uncles
and my cousin attended both Roosevelt high and Garfield high and restrooms were locked during lunch. At Belevedere jr. high the boys were swated with a belt if there shirts were not tucked in by the dean Mr.Subriskey,Mrs Flores the dean of girls was very mean girls were not allowed to wear pants in the 60's, this woman would come into the classes daily to measure the girls skirts with a yard stick from the knee. And if they were above the knee even an inch, you were hit with that yard stick. These were real events which also started the east l.a. riots. You brag about the asians being high achievers ?Let me say
native american indians do not like to be classfied with asians at all.Virgil high school was not in East Los Angeles Ca. This movie is based on our hispanic
schools.
