@allabrada: Rest in peace, Dolores. In 2015, I had the privilege of meeting Dolores Huerta and talking with her about her lifelong fight for farmworkers and civil rights. Hearing her speak about organizing firsthand was unforgettable. Learning of her passing brings a lot of reflection. Her legacy was vast and undeniably complicated—layered even further by the allegations she made against César Chávez late in life, decades after his passing when he could no longer speak to them. History and human movements are rarely simple, and her final years added difficult questions to a legacy already deeply intertwined with his. Dolores spent nearly a century organizing, fighting for worker dignity, and leaving an indelible mark on American history. Rest in peace, Dolores.
