I am happy to see that, increasingly, people care about farm workers. There is tremendous interest in where and how our food is grown.

Don't be a marshmallow. Walk the street with us into history. Get off the sidewalk. Stop being vegetables. Work for Justice. Viva the boycott!

When a group of people get together, it's collective power. You know that you're doing it for the good.

Why is it that farmworkers feed the nation but they can't get food stamps?

My mother was a dominant force in our family. And that was great for me as a young woman, because I never saw that women had to be dominated by men.

I think we brought to the world, the United States anyway, the whole idea of boycotting as a nonviolent tactic. I think we showed the world that nonviolence can work to make social change.

Leadership is a choice one makes.
