Show Notes
In Pomonas Cesar Chavez Park, a mural honoring the labor leader faces calls for removal due to sexual assault accusations. However, artist Paul Botello, Professor José Calderón, and Mayor Tim Sandoval propose changes to keep the farm worker struggle in focus. These include swapping Chavezs face for a farm worker, turning a teen into a Zoot Suiter, and replacing him with Dolores Huerta in the yes we can piece. State law requires artist input, and Sandoval plans to present these ideas at the next city council meeting, balancing legacy with fresh truths.
