CWAers Commemorate Farm Workers Strike

CWA Legislative Boot Camp attendees, along with the San Antonio AFL-CIO, spent their Labor Day commemorating the 50th Anniversary of the Farm Workers Strike, which was a spark both in the Labor Movement and in the Chicano Civil Rights Movement. A large crowd packed the San Fernando Cathedral in San Antonio, Tex., following a march through the city to Milam Park. CWA Local 6143 Vice President Geronimo Guerra chaired the commemoration.
