Show Notes
Recent allegations of sexual abuse against Cesar Chavez have led to a reevaluation of his legacy, with many states and cities renaming Cesar Chavez Day to Farmworkers Day or canceling it altogether. The United Farm Workers union has also distanced itself from its former leader. California, Minnesota, Texas, Colorado, and Washington are considering similar changes, with some focusing on Dolores Huerta Day instead. Cities across the country have canceled events, and school boards are renaming Cesar Chavez Day to Farmworkers Day. These moves aim to separate the farmworker movements gains from Chavezs actions, keeping the focus on workers dignity and rights.
