Show Notes
New allegations of sexual abuse against civil rights icon Cesar Chavez have surfaced, with claims from multiple women and longtime partner Dolores Huerta. Huerta reveals she kept the secret for decades to protect the cause. Labor leaders and Democratic officials distance Chavezs actions from the broader fight for workers rights. Practical steps are underway, including proposals to rename streets, plazas, and the March holiday to honor Huerta instead. Senator Alex Padilla plans to revise his push for a national historical park to celebrate farmworkers generally. Activists demand street name changes and call for a full law enforcement investigation into the survivors claims.
