We have recently learned of allegations about César E. Chávez that will cause many of our community members to feel conflicted, perhaps pained. As a result, our March 30th Latino Network event will not be taking place as planned. Instead, we will announce a new date to honor the movement.

While we move in a new direction for our annual event, the constant thread remains: purposeful investment in our community by supporting our youth, the arts, access to education, civic engagement, and uplifting our community.

We are in the process of contacting our stakeholders, event, sponsors, and ticket holders. As this is under evolving matter, we are balancing transparency with sensitivity.

We are also in dialogue with other community leaders to discuss other steps our Latino community can collectively follow. More information and resources to follow in the coming days.

Your support, consideration, and understanding are greatly appreciated.

60 years ago.

3/17/66: 77 Latino and Filipino grape workers -- six months into their 5 yr long strike -- set off from Delano on a 340-mile march, or pilgrimage, to place generations of farm worker grievances before the governor and Legislature in Sacramento.

By the time they were greeted at the state Capitol by 10,000 people 25 days later on Easter Sunday, April 10, 1966, the marchers—or peregrinos (pilgrims)—had also placed the farm workers’ plight squarely before the conscience of the American people.
