Pistol Posted April 2, 2002 Share Posted April 2, 2002 What did you people do for Cesar Chavez Day? You know that guy that fought peacefully for migrant workers in Central California. "Uvas no Grapes" Cesar Ending His First Fast on March 10, 1968 in Delano, and Sen. Robert F. Kennedy http://freephoto-i.net/users/Pistol/cesarkennedy.gif'> http://www.sfsu.edu/%7Ececipp/cesar_chavez/images/banner2.gif'> A Mural outside Cesar Chavez Elementary School In San Francisco http://www.sfsu.edu/%7Ececipp/cesar_chavez/images/sisepuede.gif'> http://www.sfsu.edu/%7Ececipp/cesar_chavez/images/cesarfeet.gif'> http://www.sfsu.edu/%7Ececipp/cesar_chavez/images/cesarnews.gif'> http://www.sfsu.edu/%7Ececipp/cesar_chavez/images/cesar&child.JPG'> http://www.sfsu.edu/%7Ececipp/cesar_chavez/images/cesar-campesino.gif'> http://www.sfsu.edu/%7Ececipp/cesar_chavez/images/cesar-fred.gif'> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pistol Posted April 2, 2002 Author Share Posted April 2, 2002 Your thinking of Julio Cesar Chavez the boxer. http://www.ipcress.com/box/graphics/chavez.jpg'> Cesar Chavez fought non-violently for the rights of migrant workers in Central California.

Guest SPLINTER Posted April 2, 2002 Share Posted April 2, 2002 a marched in the anual march once. and im a fatass so thats a lot of work. now, i must correct you, he was a mexican and didnt not fight only for central americans but for all field workers. and just in case you forgot mexico is part of north america. no offense intended though, at least your not a gringo wannabe que no se acuerda de nuestra historia y cultura. anyway, do you know any shops in our area that sell mayan, aztec, incan, and other latin tribe type stuff or shirts made for the brown skinned people to wear (aztlan-oralewear-chicanowear)?

Pistol Posted April 2, 2002 Author Share Posted April 2, 2002 I never said he only fought for rights of C.Americans, I has said Central California, unless i was brain dead at the time. They have that shop in the Montebello Town Center at the end, by Penny's or Robinson's May. They got ton's of framed posters of everyone from Che to Cesar Chavez to Zapata and Pancho Villa. They got a few books and shirts there too. There's another place that is supposed to be bad ass in Long Beach but I never been there. Some chick in one of my classes was telling me about it.

Smart Posted April 2, 2002 Share Posted April 2, 2002 hahaha, I mentioned Chaves in an argument around 9/11 and somebody thought I was talking about an Argentinian dictator or something, some opressor of human rights... it might have been Agt.

Pistol Posted April 2, 2002 Author Share Posted April 2, 2002 He probably thought you were talking about Chilean dictator Augusto Pinochet. :confused: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crso Posted April 2, 2002 Share Posted April 2, 2002 Originally posted by Pistol Yeah they renamed Brooklyn Avenue here in East Los Angeles(one of the more famous street names here) after him. in austin the city renamed 1st street ( it goes from west austin to east austin ) after Cesar died. and, yes it does suck that Cesar and other Mexican history , not taught in school. because i went to an all Mexican - American(99.9%) elementry school and didn't learn shit about Mexican history.:mad: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pistol Posted April 3, 2002 Author Share Posted April 3, 2002 It was Monday. It's strange that that new bill passed the other day to that allows employers to fire non-citizens like nothing with no excuses. And screws them out of what little cash they can get.
