In the 1960s and ’70s, Cesar Chavez and the United Farm Workers mobilized Latinos and low-income workers into a pioneering, grassroots activism. As our guest Randy Shaw writes, they set the stage for later social movements from environmentalism to the Obama campaign. Shaw is the author of “Beyond the Fields: Cesar Chavez, the UFW, and the Struggle for Justice in the 21st Century.”
