Cesear Chavez was a vegetarian, we should join his April 4 Parade

[Guest guest]

There’s parade all over the Bay Area, and even in Sacramento.  His relative

(sister?) makes sure every year people don’t forget him.

The SJ parade which happened recently received TV coverage… 

 

 

I think an organization should start a March with posters

saying Cesear Chavez was a vegetarian.   His march always gives great news

coverage.

How bout it veggie folks?

 

 

 

By the way Rainbow foods will be closed on March 31 to

celebrate his birthday

As we ease into a new year with the first African American

U.S. President, many echo his mantra of CHANGE….

Next Tuesday, March 31,

is a statewide opportunity to be reminded that one man can make a difference.

César Estrada Chávez

pioneered “change.” He was a simple man with an extraordinary

legacy. A migrant worker, educated only through the 8th grade after

attending 30 different schools, César never stopped feeding his mind and soul.

He was a passionate 2nd generation Latino/American man with a heart for his

community and is credited for developing the first ever farm workers union for

fair pay, health insurance, pension benefits, humane living conditions and

more. He fought injustice and he succeeded to gain attention to his

cause. He cried out for civil rights and he gained a following of respect

and just support. He loved books and was inspired by Martin Luther King,

Jr. and the writings of Mahatma Gandhi. As his shelves brimmed over with

books, his mind absorbed a plethora of knowledge furthering his commitment to

help those who were unable to help themselves.

His method of

empowering change was done in a perseverant strength that proved that violence

is not the means to uphold a cause. He died a humble death, just as he

lived a humble life, owning nothing to pass on to his family.

César’s

commitment to providing justice and equality to those he would never know far

outweighed any life-long material gain. This coming Tuesday, March 31,

let's remember a simple man who paved a difficult road of

“change.”

Ways to remember:

 

 

 

" Real education should consist of

drawing the goodness and the best out of our own students. What better books

can there be than the book of humanity? " -- Cesar Chavez
