For former UFW Volunteers, whether their service was one month, one year, or a decade, Randy Shaw's book is a MUST READ."--LeRoy Chatfield, Farmworkers Documentation Project "An important, stunningly original, and forcefully argued book."--Ruth Milkman, Director of the UCLA Institute of Industrial Relations and author of "L.A. Story: Immigrant Workers and the Future of the U.S. Labor Movement" "The most powerful social earthquake in California history struck the farm town of Delano in 1965 and, as Randy Shaw explains in this fascinating, invaluable study, its aftershocks are still shaking workplaces and elections across America."--Mike Davis, author of "In Praise of Barbarians" "Offers a powerful and moving account of how the UFW transformed people's lives, instilling a lifetime commitment to social justice. Shaw shows how the spirit, strategies, and tactics of the UFW in its heyday still provide workers, immigrants, faith-based activists and others seeking social justice with a roadmap to win local struggles and national campaigns. If you want to understand the roots of 'Si se Puede' (Yes, We Can), read this book."--Fred Ross, Jr, UFW community and labor organizer
