I’ve admired Cesar since the very early days of the UFW, and I was in the crowd in Delano the day Cesar broke his fast, along with Dolores Huerta, Bobby Kennedy, and many, many others. I still have a flag from that celebration.
One time here in New Mexico we did a leadership training program for high school students and asked them to develop a community project. The kids from the tiny mountain community of Mora, NM did a fundraising project for the UFW, and raised $75—which for these kids was a very big deal. Si podemos.
