Klappentext
A comprehensive exploration of Dolores Huerta's contributions to U. S. labor history and her life's work of advocating for systematically disadvantaged and marginalized groups.An iconic figure in American civil rights and one of the most influential labor rights activists of the 20th century, Huerta overcame great odds to make enduring contributions to social justice and advocacy, particularly for farm workers and the Latino community. Organized chronologically, this volume offers the opportunity for readers to better understand Huerta's life. From her early beginnings in California's central valley, to her influential leadership on the United Farm Workers (UFW) union, to her work educating on women's issues and advocating for Latino representation in politics, readers will explore the many efforts that made Huerta's influence enduring. Beyond a biography, this book places Huerta center stage in the context of American history, looking closely at the Chicano civil rights movement in California; social restrictions, disenfranchisement, and various forms of segregation in 1950's and 1960's America; historical labor strikes and boycotts; key legislation and political figures active in labor rights, and more. Huerta is one of the great contributors to American history, labor history, women's history, and the history of activism, social justice, and human rights. Here, her story is told in a way that captures the full span of her life and achievements.
