Patsy Mink grew up as the granddaughter of Japanese immigrants in Hawaii during World War II, well aware of the injustices that Asian Americans, especially Japanese Americans, were facing-and she used that awareness to push for change. When she won her seat in the House of Representatives from Hawaii, she became the first woman of color and the first Asian American woman elected to Congress. She was a champion of rights for women, children, immigrants, and minorities throughout her twenty-four years in Congress. She also was a mentor and inspiration, helping pave the way for many other women to succeed in politics and beyond. Book jacket.
