First Tuesday Social Justice Film Festival presents a free screening of "Dolores"

September 5, 2023:

With Labor Day on our minds, we've decided to revisit Dolores.
It's a really good, and inspiring documentary, about civil rights work in marginalized communities. And her story seems especially relevant given the ongoing conflicts between labor and the corporate world right now.

From PBS: Dolores Huerta is among the most important, yet least known, activists in American history.
History tells us Cesar Chavez transformed the U.S. labor movement by leading the first farm workers' union. But missing from this story is his equally influential co-founder, Dolores Huerta, who tirelessly led the fight for racial and labor justice alongside Chavez, becoming one of the most defiant feminists of the twentieth century. Her enormous contributions have gone largely unrecognized.
