“Herman Baca and Cesar Chavez first met in 1972, at a worker strike in San Ysidro. From then on, both leaders developed a strong political relationship that lasted until Chavez’s death, in 1993.

Baca’s admiration for Chavez continues to this day.

“Cesar’s great contribution was that before he came we (Chicanos, Mexicanos) didn’t exist,” Baca said. “He gave our people a national, even international, stature.””
