凱薩查維斯組織農場工人
1965年時，查維斯及韋爾塔同意要支持加州德拉諾的農場工人進行罷工。德拉諾歸屬另一個工會：農用工人組織委員會 (Agricultural
Workers Organizing Committee) 所統轄；NFWA(由查維斯及韋爾塔組成)要求旗下工人不要為德拉諾境內的葡萄種植者工作。這次的罷工以西班牙文
huelga (發音方法為WELL-guh)
稱呼；1966年，全國農場工人協會與農用工人組織委員會合併後，組成了聯合農場工人組織委員會 (UFWOC：United
Farm Workers Organizing Committee) ，稍後重新命名為聯合農場工人；您認為這場1965年的罷工持續了多久？
Cesar Chavez Organizes Agricultural Workers
In 1965, Chavez and Huerta agreed to honor a walkout by farm workers in Delano, California, who were in another union, the Agricultural Workers Organizing Committee. Workers in the NFWA (formed by Chavez and Huerta) were asked not to work for the Delano grape growers. This strike was called a huelga (pronounced WELL-guh) in Spanish. In 1966, the National Farm Workers Association joined with the Agricultural Workers Organizing Committee to form the United Farm Workers Organizing Committee (UFWOC), later renamed the United Farm Workers. How long do you think the 1965 strike lasted?
