Few know about the Cuban woman who, disguised as a man, fought for the Confederates in the American Civil War. Or the 1947 federal court case brought on by a Mexican-Puerto Rican woman that desegregated schools in California, seven years before Brown v. Board. Or the Spanish general whose decisive victories against the British in the American Revolutionary War ensured the Colonies' success.
