In 1961, when Lila was five, she and her family emigrated from Buenos Aires, Argentina, to Marion, Alabama, in the heart of Alabama's Black Belt. As educated, middle-class Latino immigrants in a region that was defined by segregation, the Quinteros occupied a privileged vantage from which to view the racially charged culture they inhabitCivil rights movementsAlabamaHistory20th centuryArgentine AmericansAlabamaBiographyAlabamaSocial conditions20th centuryAlabamaRace relationsHistory20th centuryAlabamaBiographyGraphic novels.Comics (Graphic works)lcgftCivil rights movementsHistoryArgentine Americans976.1092BWeaver Lila Quintero1685077MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910825644903321Darkroom4056926UNINA
