"For more than a century farm workers had been denied a decent life in the fields and communities of California's agricultural valleys. Led by the great organizer and humanitarian, Cesar Chavez, they were, over time, able to call upon allies in other unions, in churches and in community groups affiliated with the growing civil rights movement to help them in supporting the creation of a union responsive to the needs of the many laborers who fill the cornucopias of our nation."

My mother, Jean, was teaching ESL (English as a Second Language) to farm workers and earning their trust and affection (and the enmity of the local growers!) before there was a "Movement", so they were naturally drawn to it as it developed. When Cesar Chavez became a vegetarian my mother would make fresh juices for him; my father, Abraham, a chiropractor, would do his bad back a mitzvah. I do so miss the taste of grapes!
