Today is Ceasar Chavez Day, marking the birthday of the late United Farm Workers organizer and activist.
Chavez was also the first civil rights leader to publicly support LGBT civil rights. I remember hearing him speak at the 1987 LGBT March on Washington, it was the largest crowd he ever spoke to. He also walked in the march.
“Sí Se Puede” – “Yes We Can!"
