Feet of Clay: Gus C. Garcia, Tragic Hero of the Civil Rights Movement
In the early 1950s, a Mexican American man named Gus has become a top Texas civil rights attorney--a climb that has been bedeviled by his competing obsessions with the law, la raza, the ladies, and Chivas Regal whisky.
On the day he learns his failed marriage has rendered him homeless, Gus hastily takes on a new client, a man accused of shooting and killing a man outside a bar in Edna. The case...
When MILLIE ROSE DIAZ learned her hometown was the beginning backdrop to the first Supreme Court case won by Mexican Americans, she found a purpose. Before that, she spent five years as sports and managing editor of the Jackson County Herald-Tribune, where she is now a part-time reporter. She lives in Edna and writes fiction accompanied by her exceptionally perfect black cat, My Love.
