We Are Organizers At Heart.

A Symbol Is An Important Thing. That Is Why We Chose An Aztec Eagle. It Gives Pride...when People See It They Know It Means Dignity.

These Observations Tie In Directly With The Whole Question Of Organizing. Why Do We Have Leaders? We Put Some People Out In The Fields And All Of A Sudden They Hit, They Click. Everyone's Happy With Them And They Begin To Move Mountains. With Other People There Are Problems And Heartaches. They Just Don't Go. When We Look And See What's Happening, Almost Invariably The Differences Are Along The Lines Of Willingness To Sacrifice And Work Long Hours.

We Shall Strike. We Shall Organize Boycotts. We Shall Demonstrate And Have Political Campaigns. We Shall Pursue The Revolution We Have Proposed. We Are Sons And Daughters Of The Farm Workers' Revolution, A Revolution Of The Poor Seeking Bread And Justice.

It's Amazing How People Can Get So Excited About A Rocket To The Moon And Not Give A Damn About Smog, Oil Leaks, The Devastation Of The Environment With Pesticides, Hunger, Disease. When The Poor Share Some Of The Power That The Affluent Now Monopolize, We Will Give A Damn.

There Is A Great Fear Of Our Union - A Fear That I Do Not Fully Understand, But That I Know Is Present...what Is It That Causes Some Men To Act So Hastily And So Cruelly? It Cannot Be That We Are So Powerful. Is It So Much To Ask That The Poorest People Of The Land Have A Measure Of Justice?
