When it came time to go to graduate school, private foundations such as the Howard
Hughes Medical Institute and the Ford Foundation paid my way and the U.S. National
Science Foundation paid for my research. Glenda Flores has noted in her award-winning
book “Latina Teachers” that affirmative action policies primarily benefit white women
and have led to an increase in the proportion of white women in professions like medicine
and law. Teaching and nursing, professions previously occupied mostly by white women,
have become more open to Latino teachers and teachers of color.
