Strike!: The Farm Workers' Fight for Their Rights
Larry Dane Brimner
In the 1960s, while the United States was at war and racial tensions were boiling over, Filipino American workers were demanding fair wages and decent living conditions in California?s vineyards. When the workers walked out of the fields in September 1965, the great Delano grape strike began. Did the signing of labor contracts with growers in 1970 mean an end to the problems of American field laborers, or was it a short-lived truce? Award-winning author Larry Dane Brimner follows the five-year-long strike through the rise of César Chávez and the United Farm Workers. Brimner?s riveting text, complemented by black-and-white archival photographs and the words of workers, organizers, and growers, tells the powerful story. Includes an author?s note, bibliography, and source notes.
