We had to chose a Native Spanish speaking person, and write about why or what we admire about them. I chose Cesar Chavez, because he fought for farm workers that were tortured doing their own job. He made boycotted, made petitions and fought all he could to make farm workers earn what they needed to earn. The next paragraph what I wrote about him as seen in the picture.
Cesar Estrada Chavez is best known for leading the grape boycott in the 60's. Chavez was against grape growers in California by poor and pesticides that were harmful to workers. Chavez made protests and petitions to stop it and to get paid more workers. Because in times they were only paid twenty cents for three hours. Cesar Estrada Chavez was fighting for farmers to have what belonged to them.
I decided to write about Cesar Chavez, because he worked for farm workers' rights. With him, farmers were able to get payed more and they were able to get breaks more often. Cesar fought for a good reason, and I appreciate that. People don't know how hard they worked and how little they were payed. Not only that, but even some people died because they were working to hard out in the sun and not being able to drink any water.
