“We knew the potential when we joined together not as competitors but as true brothers.” –Andy Imutan, Farm Worker and Organizer
On March 17, 1966, the Filipino led Agricultural Workers Organizing Committee and Mexican led National Farm Workers Association joined in a historic march to fight for workers rights, later joining in one union–the United Farm Workers.
