Title

Marchers demonstrate during UFW's renewed Grape Boycott in the 1980s

Description

Chavez and the United Farm Workers solicited the public to participate in a nationwide boycott of grape producers that did not display a union label. The UFW's broad-spectrum social justice agenda enabled it to enlist churches, community organizations, civil rights activists, and other labor unions as key allies in the UFW campaigns. Moreover, millions of Americans took part in the boycotts.
