Dolores Huerta is one of the most important activists in U.S. history. She cofounded the United Farm Workers union with Cesar Chavez and tirelessly led the fight for civil rights and labor justice alongside him, becoming “one of the most defiant feminists of the 20th century” — and she continues the fight to this day. https://youtu.be/vqz9qkPqD4M?si=eAfjbzhfJX1n41k4 Sign up now: https://foodjusticefilmfestival.com/

About the FJFF
In 2020, we created the Food Justice Film Festival to elevate and amplify the voices of food workers, farmworkers, activists and filmmakers while continuing a dialogue on the issues surrounding who grows our food, how our food is grown, who has access to sustainable food and who is harmed by industrial-farming practices and policies. We can only achieve a truly just, sustainable food system by drastically reducing meat consumption and production. The Center works with allies from health-advocacy, animal-protection and worker-justice organizations to redefine the concept of sustainable food to encompass practices that benefit people, other animals and the planet.
