(farm Workers) Are Involved In The Planting And The Cultivation And The Harvesting Of The Greatest Abundance Of Food Known In This Society. They Bring In So Much Food To Feed You And Me And The Whole Country And Enough Food To Export To Other Places. The Ironic Thing And The Tragic Thing Is That After They Make This Tremendous Contribution, They Don't Have Any Money Or Any Food Left For Themselves.

We Have Suffered Unnumbered Ills And Crimes In The Name Of The Law Of The Land. Our Men, Women, And Children Have Suffered Not Only The Basic Brutality Of Stoop Labor, And The Most Obvious Injustices Of The System; They Have Also Suffered The Desperation Of Knowing That The System Caters To The Greed Of Callous Men And Not To Our Needs. Now We Will Suffer For The Purpose Of Ending The Poverty, The Misery, And The Injustice, With The Hope That Our Children Will Not Be Exploited As We Have Been. They Have Imposed Hungers On Us, And Now We Hunger For Justice.

Self Dedication Is A Spiritual Experience.

We Are Suffering. We Have Suffered. And We Are Not Afraid To Suffer In Order To Win Our Cause.
