Dolores Huerta nació en 10 de abril de 1930. Líder del movimiento laboral chicano, confundadora y vicepresidenta del Sindicato de Trabajadores del Campo (UFW), ha dedicado su vida a la lucha por la justicia y dignidad de los trabajadores inmigrantes del campo. Su trabajo durante el Boicot Nacional Contra la Venta de Uva del UFW condujo a la aprobación del Acta de Relaciones Laborales en la Agricultura de 1975 en que se establecieron los derechos básicos de los trabajadores. Dolores sigue luchando por que haya mejores salarios, agua limpia y excusados en los campos agrícolas; vivienda digna, prestaciones de salud y un ambiente de trabajo libre de acoso y agresiones sexuales. En 2006, sigue encabezando la lucha a favor de los derechos civiles y promoviendo el activismo no violento.

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.

Seattle’s International Working Women’s Day for Palestine and Beyond

March 12, 2024

“We stand in solidarity with our Palestinian siblings in Gaza and those among our community who are directly and indirectly affected by the current war and genocide by the Israeli settler-colonial regime. Passive observation of the horrors of bombings, genocide, and prolonged apartheid is not our way. We must rise and firmly proclaim that Palestinian Liberation is a Feminist Imperative.” – Feminists for Jina Seattle
