Repost from @mymisomayo "Si, se puede!" Happy 90th Birthday Dolores Huerta 🎂 Awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom🎖️by President Obama in 2012 for her work as a labor leader and activist, Huerta is the originator of that rallying cry and was the first Latina inducted into the National Women's Hall of Fame. Along with Cesar Chavez, she organized non-violent strikes and boycotts to focus attention on the plight of migrant farm workers 🍇, and co-founded the first successful farmworkers' union in the US (now known as the United Farm Workers Union UFW). 🚜 . Listen on YouTube @cityartssf to her 4/3/20 convo with Alice Waters. . Stars in my eyes ... I met both of these remarkable women in SF this January when they cohosted the Good Food Awards - with Michael Pollan: Sweet Black Garlic Miso Mayo won a Pantry Award 🥇 . . . . . @doloreshuerta @alicelouisewaters @kitchensisters @goodfoodfdn #sisepuede #doloreshuerta #activism #laborleader #UFWF #cesarchavez #farmworkers #union #civilrights #socialchange #aflcio #grapeboycott #mymisomayo #socialjustice #pesticideFree #barackobama #medaloffreedom #latina #womens #halloffame #alicewaters #dhf #michaelpollan https://www.instagram.com/p/B-3UDkZgW8s/?igshid=10nniv1apkjsx

It Won't Wash. I absolutely love finding original vintage items with a protest, or social justice subject. UFW Third Grape Boycott T Shirt. In 1984 Cesar Chavez and the UFW called their third Grape Boycott, due to the unacceptable living circumstances of the grape workers and their families, and the uncontrolled use of toxic cancer causing pesticides, killing the farm workers and their children. Great graphics of vats of pesticides with skull and crossbones dangling amidst a bunch of grapes. Tee is union made in Pennsylvania. Please dm me for more info. #vintagetshirt #protest #cesarchavez #ufw #grapeboycott #socialjustice #80s #80sfashion #pesticides #vintageshop #sandiegovintage #sandiegovintagestore #northpark #explorenorthpark #socialhistory #ushistory (at The Girl Can't Help It)
