We will be encapsulating the history of both Latine(x) and Pilipino farm worker movements of California. This a lucha (fight) that will preserve the historical legacy and stories of many leaders important to the movement such as Dolores Huerta, Larry Itliong, Cesar Chavez, Gilbert Padilla, and many more.
