“March 2006 marks the 40th anniversary of César Chávez’s historic 340-mile pilgrimage from his home in Delano, Calif., to the steps of the state capitol in Sacramento to draw national attention to the struggles and conditions of farm workers. Chávez would have celebrated his 79th birthday March 31.

The life and accomplishments of Chávez, labor leader and champion of human rights, will be observed with a monthlong series of diverse activities beginning April 6 and continuing through May 10 at UCSD. All events are free and open to the public unless otherwise noted.”
