Dolores Huerta is an iconic labor leader and activist who took on the fight for civil rights during the 1968 Delano Grape Strike. With Cesar Chavez and Larry Itliong, Huerta’s tireless fight for workers’ rights leads all the way to the White House. Her resilience in the face of adversity, and her profound impact on social justice in America changed history, reminding us that the fight for justice is ongoing and that one person’s courage can ignite a movement.
