Dolores Huerta has fought tirelessly for those who didn’t have a voice to fight for themselves. Huerta led the farmworkers movement with activist Cesar Chavez and co-founded what is known as the “United Farm Workers of America”. She created the movement’s famous slogan, “Si Se Puede”, which inspired President Obama’s “Yes, we can” campaign. At 90 years old, she’s influenced people all over the world.
