During one of her trips to California, Chicana artist Ester Hernández introduced Iturbide to the renowned farmworkers’ leaders and civil rights advocates César Chávez and Dolores Huerta, founders of the United Farm Workers (UFW). Chavez devoted his life to nonviolent resistance—marches, strikes, boycotts—to win fair wages, safe conditions, and dignity for agricultural laborers.
