16 Dolores Huerta
Sacramento
Dolores Huerta, secretary-treasurer of the United Farm Workers, pauses before the final walk to the state capitol at the end of the month-long farmworkers' march from Delano to Sacramento in 1994. Huerta worked with Cesar Chavez from the beginning of the long struggle to organize the UFW. She has been a leading voice for women, Latinas, immigrants and farmworkers in the labor movement for over three decades.
