The March 18 edition of The Latino Newsletter is by @juliorvarela.com What the César Chávez Revelations Mean for Our Community @zacariasm.bsky.social and Julio will share more this Friday on the next episode of our podcast

I met Dolores Huerta in 2023. She was small in stature but made up for it in presence. I told her I was from Chicago and her eyes lit up, “I love Chicago organizers!” At the end of the night I watched her help the staff clean up: truly a woman of the people. I stand with her & the other survivors 💐

The Latino Newsletter reached out to the Chávez family for a comment about the @nytimes.com story. Here is what the family shared.

"I am nearly 96 years old, and for the last 60 years have kept a secret because I believed that exposing the truth would hurt the farmworker movement I have spent my entire life fighting for." — Dolores Huerta

Via @nytimes.com Cesar Chavez, a Civil Rights Icon, Is Accused of Abusing Girls for Years An investigation by The New York Times found extensive evidence that the United Farm Workers co-founder groomed and sexually abused girls who worked in the movement.
