Summary: (from www.imdb.com)
"Dolores Huerta bucks 1950s gender
conventions by starting the country's
first farm worker's union with fellow
organizer Cesar Chavez. What starts out
as a struggle for racial and labor justice,
soon becomes a fight for gender equality
within the same union she is eventually
forced to leave. As she wrestles with
raising 11 children, three marriages, and
is nearly beaten to death by a San Francisco
tactical police squad, Dolores emerges with
a vision that connects her new found feminism
with racial and class justice."
My Comments:
Another person I was not familiar with until
watching this documentary. A very inspiring
story for people struggling for important
changes.
