March to Sacramento: Fifty Years.
On Cesar Chavez Day, this is a conversation with elders who remember a key milestone of the farm worker movement: the 400-mile march or pilgrimage of striking grape workers from Delano to Sacramento. Original full-time marchers, including the striker who served as the march’s captain, share their memories to mark the 50th anniversary of the historic protest led by legendary labor leader Cesar Chavez.
Guests: Roberto Bustos, Captain of the March to Sacramento, Tulare, CA; Carolina Franco, Delano, CA; Ramón Mendoza, Tulare, CA; Aristeo Oropeza, Wilmington, CA.
