the National Farmer Association changed from a workers' rights organization that helped workers get unemployment insurance to that of a union of farm workers almost overnight, when the NFWA went out on strike in support of the mostly Filipino farm workers of the AWOC in Delano, California who had previously initiated a grape strike on September 8, 1965.

What was the purpose of the national farm workers association?

The National Farm Workers Association (NFWA), founded in 1962 by Cesar Chavez and Dolores Huerta, aimed to improve the working conditions, wages, and rights of farm laborers, primarily in California. The organization sought to address issues such as poor pay, unsafe working conditions, and lack of access to basic amenities for agricultural workers, many of whom were migrant laborers. Through collective bargaining, strikes, and advocacy, the NFWA played a crucial role in mobilizing farm workers and raising awareness about their struggles, ultimately leading to the formation of the United Farm Workers (UFW) in 1966.
