Dolores Huerta and César Chávez were prominent civil rights activists and labor leaders who co-founded the United Farm Workers (UFW) in the 1960s. They fought for better working conditions, wages, and rights for farmworkers, emphasizing nonviolent protest and grassroots organizing. Huerta is known for coining the slogan "Sí, se puede" (Yes, we can), while Chávez gained national recognition for his leadership in the grape boycott and advocating for the rights of Latino workers. Together, they significantly advanced the labor movement and raised awareness about the struggles faced by agricultural workers in the United States.
