BWOPA CA Statement on the Passing of Dolores Huerta
On behalf of Dezie Woods-Jones, Founding Member and Legacy Leader

Today, Black Women Organized for Political Action California joins communities across the state and nation in mourning the passing of Dolores Huerta—a courageous organizer, a champion for working people, and a woman whose life expanded what generations of women believed was possible.

Dolores understood that power begins with people. She organized, challenged injustice, and demanded dignity for those whose labor sustained this country but whose voices were too often ignored. She reminded us that women belong wherever decisions are made—and that our responsibility is to bring others forward with us.

As a Black woman who has devoted her life to organizing and advancing women’s political leadership, I honor the enduring example of her courage. Black women and Latinas know the determination it takes to confront barriers, build coalitions, and keep our communities at the center of the struggle for change. Dolores’s life reminds us how much we can accomplish when we stand together.

At BWOPA-CA, we honor her legacy through our continued commitment to developing women leaders, protecting our communities’ voices, and turning civic participation into lasting political power. The next generation deserves to know her name, understand her work, and recognize its own responsibility to carry that work forward.

To her family, loved ones, and all who organized alongside her, we extend our deepest condolences. May you find comfort in knowing that her life’s work continues in the people she inspired and the leaders she helped make possible.

Rest in power, Dolores. We will honor your life by continuing the work.
