Delano grape strike

she organized one of the biggest strikes to go down in Latin-American history, which was known as the the Delano Grape Strike of 5,000 workers striking that day. Cesar Chavez and Dolores Huerta insisted that Latin and Filipino strikers to work together sharing the same picket lines, strike kitchens, and union halls. Chavez specifically asked for the strikers to remain nonviolent. This was a pivotal moment throughout history in general because around this same time the Civil Rights movement was at its peak with Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. on the verge on changing history for African Americans. Which overall meant, that other minorities like Hispanic and Filipinos also deserved equality as well. The strike led a 300-mile march from Delano to Sacramento which eventually led to the boycotts of the grapes and many other farms across America. Cesar Chavez along with Dolores Huerta knew that the only way they would eventually win this strike was to keep hope and to be patient because with neither of those things they would result in wanting to physically fight back. So for about 3 years they boycotted until Robert F. Kennedy met with Dolores Huerta in Delano as he expressed and said how much he appreciated Dolores for everything she’s done. The entire point of the “Huelga” was to deteriorate the inequality given to Mexican-American farm workers and their families, but luckily after 5 years of fighting Dolores managed to organize contracts with 26 grape growers to improve the working…

The quote “Injustice anywhere is injustice everywhere” by Martin Luther King Jr. is saying that if people point out injustice in one situation, they will apply that example to other situations elsewhere. This was shown in the Cesar Chavez movie. In the movie I learned that in 1964 a movement was on its way up and the union United Farm Workers Association (UFWA) was formed with 1,000 members, mostly from the workers in the grape farms around Delano. The farm workers wanted better wages and better…

“Yeah, but I already know how to do it. It’s common sense, really. Plus, I learned how to make a pill in science class. You pour the yellow mixture into the pan with the tablet-sized holes in it. Bake it for a while until it gets hard. Then, you let them cool. When they are done cooling, drop a little poison over them. That’s all there is to it,” Faith smiled. “Not even,” Quinn smirked. “You have to make the poison so the Elders can’t feel any pain. Now that is hard.” “Okay. Then teach me.” She…

We have several people in this class that are gentlemen and gentlewomen farmers. I helped my mother and dad who loved to garden as a youngster. To say that I loved to working in the garden as a youngster would classify as a whooper of a lie. So I don’t claim any great knowledge as a gardener. But even a novice gardener like me, is aware of what Jesus was telling us when He discussed pruning a vine. I remember suckering plants with mom and dad. (Ask those present why they would remove stems and…

Whenever Taylor asks Turtle some questions Taylor gets nothing in response. Turtle appears to distrust her, which makes sense because people tend to avoid trusting others after experiencing a horror happen to them especially when it is an innocent child that experiences it. In addition, Turtle becomes reserved when she is with a group of people; Turtle ignores those that are around her and focuses in what she sees in her mind. Dwayne Ray had on a huge white sailor hat and had nodded forward in…

You know me as a raisin, but this is not who I have always been. I was born quite some time ago as a red seedless grape. Like so many other grapes, my home was California. I grew on a vine in the San Joaquin Valley. When I was ripe, I was among many grapes chosen to become raisins. A man took us from the vine and gently washed and dried us. Then, we were placed on a huge paper tray and spread out so we were not touching each another. This would allow us to dry better. Another person took us…
