Show Notes
Pima County supervisors in Arizona have decided to remove Cesar Chavez Day as a holiday for county workers due to sexual abuse allegations against the former farm workers union leader. The floating holiday will continue under a new name, and all art or signs featuring Chavez will be removed from county properties. This move aims to honor the farm workers movement while distancing itself from Chavezs personal failings.
