Poster - Dolores Huerta (CPH)
Dolores Huerta by Bobby Cortez and Blake Riley, Celebrate People's History poster, December, 2006. This is a 2-color offset printed poster.
Dolores Huerta, born April 10, 1930, Chicana labor leader, co-founder and vice-president of the United Farm Workers Union (UFW), has dedicated her life to the struggle for justice and dignity for migrant farm workers. Her direction of the UFW’s National Grape Boycott led to the passage of the groundbreaking Agricultural Labor Relations Act of 1975, establishing the farm workers bill of rights. Dolores continues the struggle for a living wage, clean water and toilets in the fields, decent housing, health benefits, and the freedom to work without sexual harassment and assault. In 2006, she can still be found on the front lines fighting for civil rights and promoting nonviolent activism.
