Marcie's Reviews > Bernice Sandler and the Fight for Title IX

Both informative and inspirational, this biography of Bernice Sandler (aka "The Godmother of Title IX") belongs in every middle school library. The writer does an excellent job of establishing the historical context that led to the 1972 federal civil rights law, while also making it relevant to today's reader. The photos and illustrations (by Sarah Green) help bring the narrative to life. For young activists eager to make an impact, but not sure how to get started, Bernice Sandler can show them how!
