Cesar Chavez was a Mexican American farmer and activist who, along with Dolores Huerta, founded the National Farm Workers Association. He strongly supported the Delano grape strike, initiated by a group of Filipino workers, who demanded for the higher wages, equal to the federal minimum wage. He, along with the National Farm Workers Association, asked the general population to boycott table grapes to show support for their movement. This strike lasted five years and was even supported by Robert F. Kennedy, when he was a member of the Subcommittee on Migratory Labor.
