Latino Workers Rights Roots of the Problem

Troubles on the Farms Immigrants (mainly Latino) working on fields harsh working conditions little pay & benefits Other minorities joined Latino farmers to fight against bad working conditions 1903 – creation of the first ever farm worker’s union Japanese & Mexican Labor Association Japanese & Mexican farm workers joined forces 1st ever association to fight against California’s agriculture industry

Cesar Chavez, Dolores Huerta & NFWA Farmers had tried to gain benefits/rights on their own Often plans backfire Cesar Chavez – born in Yuma, Arizona to farmer parents (knew the harsh realities of working on farms) Believed farm workers needed to organize stronger as group rather than individuals Held meetings in different Latino farming communities Educate on how to start unions Chavez joined forces with Civil Rights leader Dolores Huerta Focused exclusively on farm worker rights Start National Farm Workers Association

“You don’t know how it feels to know that we are not the only ones.” NFWA & SNCC “You don’t know how it feels to know that we are not the only ones.” Word spread of fight for fair working conditions African American civil rights organizations inspired by Latino farm workers Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee(SNCC) & Congress of Racial Equality (CORE) SNCC & CORE helped Latino farm worker movement taught non violent tactics for protest help spread word of their cause via newspaper The Movement bilingual section specifically for the Latino farm worker cause called El Malcriado Farm workers of other races (African American, Asian, Filipino) inspired & joined the fight alongside Latino farm workers

UFW & Delano Grapes United Farm Workers Organizing Committee union Filipino Workers Union & NFWA join forces Produce growers, specifically grape growers refused to work with the Union Chavez, SNCC & CORE organized a boycott of Delano grapes Encouraged grape boycott led a 300 mile march from Delano to Sacramento Led to higher wages, benefits, & better working conditions “We are with you and we are proud of your march and your victory because it is a victory for all the poor of the world” -SNCC

Troubles in other Work Sectors Latinos worked in other industries Meat packing factories, steel mills, print shops, manufacturing factories Experienced harsh working conditions, little benefits and low pay Unions for other work sectors started to spring up Confederation of Mexican Workers Union (Confederacion de Uniones Oberas de Mexicanos)
