LetHIMSortEmOutPretty heartbreaking and conflicting to hear this as a fellow Latino.
The fact that she fought through all those movements knowing this happened to her and approaching it with the mentality of putting the Farm workers first ahead of her own personal legitimate pain is... superhuman to me.
Lord knows what the Media would have done to Hispanics if this news was brokenout during the peak of those civil rights movements. Hispanics would surely all be painted as PDFs and the discrimination would have been far worse.
I hope at the very least they either formerly rename the day to reflect these victims names, or if they go by the way of just acknowledging it as Farm Workers/Braceros Day, then have their names shined and brightened at the very beginning and never try to do anything to erase their legacy. They suffered for US.

Every woman in the 50s, 60s, etc was doing this.
People like her, Coretta Scott King, and so many other black and brown women of the movement that was forced to “keep their pain low” for the sake of the movement is why lot of women go hard today.
The biggest failure of that era was never really caring about what the women was going through. Elaine Brown’s “Taste Of Power” shows a lot of sexism and machismo was rampant in the BPP.
