UFW Vice President makes a visit to Fresno
a
Let's make it a peace lobby..
we all want peace"
— Dolores Huerta
By Christina Gomez
Managing editor
Dolores Huerta, one of the
most active members of the
United Farmworkers, spoke to
a crowd of over 60 people on the
importance of non-violent pro-
testsin the Chicano community.
Huerta spoke at the Ted C
Willis Corrur unity Center, last
Saturday to an anxious crowd.
She discussed among other
things, Cesar Chavez and his
lasting effect on us today. His,
famous fasting, a tactic used by
colleges throughout the state and
country including the Univer¬
sity of California, Los Angeles
and Santa Barbara; and Stanford.
While discussing newh/.ap-
proved Proposition 187, she
proudly spoke of an earlier
amendment the UFW helped
defeat It was in 1985 when, then
senator, Pete Wilson proposed
an amendment that would al¬
iow illegal workers to come into
the country, work for a time pe¬
riod, then deport them to their ,
native country when their ser¬
vices were no longer heeded.
Huerta applauded those
young Chicane* who have taken
theirstand of opposition against
Proposition 187 with walk-outs
and protests. Students out there
are feeling the effects of racism
that is being promoted by gov¬
ernment, said Huerta. "Ifs"
amazing the" people with the
most energy were, in. mostcases,
high school students and even
college students."
"We should make
them [the government]
spend as much money on
our children in the com¬
munities as they spend on
making golf courses... The
youth is our responsibil¬
ity, they are our future."
She also quoted an
article recently published
in the Los Angeles Times
about a new proposal from
a subcommittee of the
Ways and Means commit¬
tee that would take away
any public assistance, like
welfare, from any legal im¬
migrants coming to this
country.
