Latina Icons Mural



Yolanda Black Navarro Middle School 5100 Polk St., Houston, TX 77023



The result of community input, this 40 by 80-foot mural depicts a young girl reading a book about the heroines of her community. As she reads, her imagination comes to life and these five women encircle her. With these outstanding women as role models, the young girl can imagine herself achieving her own dreams and goals, and one day becoming an icon herself. The icons are Yolanda Black Navarro, Nelly Moyano Fraga, Angela Morales, Graciela Saenz, and Norma Zenteno.
