Show Notes
Dolores Huerta, labor rights icon and co-founder of the United Farm Workers union, revealed she was sexually abused by Cesar Chavez. She kept quiet for sixty years to protect the movement. A New York Times investigation detailed Chavezs abuse of young girls. Huerta stressed the unions wins came from thousands, not just one leader. Latino civil rights groups condemned the abuse but defended the broader movement. The United Farm Workers union distanced itself, urging focus on service. State leaders are rethinking honors for Chavez, and groups are pushing to rename streets and schools bearing his name.
