Dolores Huerta and the United Farm Workers

Season 1 Episode 3 | 2m 57s

Historian Paul Ortiz calls the rise of the United Farm Workers “the single most important event in Latinx history.” John Leguizamo meets Dolores Huerta, who formed the National Farm Workers Association (NFWA) with César Chávez in 1965, and hears firsthand about their struggles – and victories – in fighting for the rights of farmworkers.
