People could make differences but one perticular man made the difference of many labor workers.Ii'm wrighting about this topic because this perticular man made a difference that nobody expected him to. Cesar Chavez was born on March 31, 1927 in San Luis, Arizona as a Mexican American. Most of his life he was a farm laborer who experienced bad working conditions and low wages when he a young man. During his early years he was committed to education and also joined the U.S. Navy. Chavez was influenced by Father Donald McDonnell. They both spoke about the farm workers and strikes for better work conditions, peaceful or violent. As a labor leader, Chavez used non-violent metheds to fight for migrant workers rights near the southwestern USA. Chavez learned these non-violent methods from reading about St. Francis and Gandhi. In 1962 Chavez and others founded a group or union named the National Farm Workers Assosiation (NFWA), isn goal for the Union was to stop the unfairness between the bosses and the workers. In 1968 he had organized a five-year long "grape boycott", this act was to stop people from buying California grapes until the workers received a better pay. years pass and the NFWA changed its name to The United FArm Workers (the UFW). Chavez's goal was to educate Mexican immigrants and oraganized registration drives for the new US citizens.
From a personnal view this man is an amazing person who went from a young labor worker to a very wise and famous person who cares for the people that went through the same problems as himself.This is very important to the blog because it deals with lobar workers rights and conditions. Also this is good because it tells the reader that there are people that are taking a stand to stop the unfairness.
