History, Oliver Rosales talks about latinos and the Civil Rights Movement. His class is an hour and a half. Tonight were going to be talking about the delano grape strike within the bigger, larger context of United States history, labor history and civil rights history. In terms of logistics, how the evening will go, im going to talk a little bit about the topic. Im going to say a few words about my own research, how i came to pursue a topic in civil rights history. And then were also going to talk about a document that i had you read before coming to class, the plan of delano. Were also going to talk about oral histories, the way that the next hour or so will progress. And i want to start off by just saying a few general remarks, things that i hope you take away from the course of the evening. And im going to be argumentative and try to be bold in my states.

When we study the delano grape strike, it is one of the most significant, important labor and Civil Rights Movements for not only mexicanamerican, latinos, but also filipinos, in the 20th century. The united farm workers conducted the most successful boycott in all of u. S. Labor history, since the beginning of this country, right . So again, its a really landmark, significant event on a national and even an international scale.

Own research, how i cam to pursue a right in civil rights history. Well talk about a document i had to read before coming to class. Well also talk about your histories. Thats sort of the way the next hour or so will progress. I want to start off by saying a few general marks, what i take away from the course of the evening. I will try to be fwoeld in my it is one of the most pi some might tang it a step firth and say they conducted the most successful boycott since the beginning of this country. Its a really landmark significant event on national and international scale. Another take away that i want you to leave with tonight is this is a United States History Survey course and if you think about everything you learned up until this point, much of it has been foe udenned it is into the society, right . We talked about northern industrialism. We havent talked a lot about the American West. We talked a little bit about the incorporation but we havent talked a lot about the American West.

And im going to be argumentive and try to be bold in my statements. I would definitely say as a historian that when we study the delano grape strike that it is one of the most significant, important, labor and Civil Rights Movements for not only mexican americans, latinos, but also filipino americans in the 20th century. Some might even take it a step further and say that the united farm workers conducted the most successful boycott in all of u. S. Labor hist
