“Attending Cal State Long Beach was traumatic for Anna Nieto-Gomez.

The 20-year-old transferred to the university in February 1967 as a junior from San Bernardino Junior College and immediately felt uncomfortable.

In the sea of 20,000 students, Nieto-Gomez didn’t know anyone and fewer than 100 of her classmates were Latino.”
