**Producer: **Brian Benson Join us at Vidiots for a screening of the documentary *Dolores *in celebration of the life and legacy of Chicana labor activist Dolores Huerta. Co-Presented with our friends at El Cine. Directed by Peter Bratt, *Dolores *tracks the personal and political life of Dolores Huerta, starting in the 1940s and 1950s when she bucked gender conventions by starting the country’s first farm worker’s union with fellow organizer Cesar Chavez. What starts out as a struggle for racial and labor justice, soon becomes a fight for gender equality within the same union she is eventually forced to leave. As she wrestles with raising 11 children, three marriages, and is nearly beaten to death by a San Francisco tactical police squad, Dolores emerges with a vision that connects her new found feminism with racial and class justice.
