DESCRIPTION:Nov 21, 7:30pm\n\nAn equal partner in co-founding the first farm workers 
 unions with Cesar Chavez, Dolores Huerta has become one of the most defiant 
 feminists of the twentieth century, and one of the most important activists 
 in American history. Now 89 years old, she continues the fight to this 
 day.\n\nDuring the Civil Rights Era, Dolores co-founded what is now the 
 United Farm Workers union, resolutely dedicating her life to securing the 
 rights of immigrant farmworkers and to combating the fierce racism 
 underlying their mistreatment. A mother of 11 children, Dolores has fought 
 tirelessly and effectively for the cause, an upstream battle against sexist 
 double standards, both within the movement and outside of it.\n\nIn today's 
 political climate, she sees the fundamental freedoms of her fellow 
 Americans freshly imperiled, and has come forward to share her story with a 
 new generation of activists seeking to create change. Dolores teaches these 
 individuals that they have personal power that needs to be coupled with 
 responsibility and cooperation to create the changes needed to improve 
 their lives. As founder and president of the Dolores Huerta Foundation, she 
 travels across the country engaging in campaigns and influencing 
 legislation that supports equality and defends civil rights.\n\nJoin Latinx 
 studies professor Maria L. Quintana for a conversation with Dolores Huerta 
 about her life and work as a revolutionary and inspirational leader 
 dedicated to activism, feminism, and the future of America.\n\nA portion of 
 the proceeds from this event are being donated to the Dolores Huerta 
 Foundation.\n\n$25-55.\n
