We Can Choose To Use Our Lives

Jesus' Life And Words Are A Challenge At The Same Time That They Are Good News. They Are A Challenge To Those Of Us Who Are Poor And Oppressed. By His Life He Is Calling Us To Give Ourselves To Others, To Sacrifice For Those Who Suffer, To Share Our Lives With Our Brothers And Sisters Who Are Also Oppressed. He Is Calling Us To "hunger And Thirst After Justice" In The Same Way That We Hunger And Thirst After Food And Water: That Is, By Putting Our Yearning Into Practice.

Organizing Is An Educational Process. The Best Educational Process In The Union Is The Picket Line And The Boycott. You Learn About Life.

It Is Clearly Evident That Our Path Travels Through A Valley Of Teas Well Known To All Farm Workers, Because In All Valleys The Way Of The Farm Worker Has Bene One Of Sacrifice For Generations. Our Sweat And Our Blood Have Fallen On This Land To Make Other Men Rich. This Pilgrimage Is A Witness To The Suffering We Have Seen For Generations.

I'm Not Going To Ask For Anything Unless The Workers Want It. If They Want It, They'll Ask For It.

From The Depth Of Need And Despair, People Can Work Together, Can Organize Themselves To Solve Their Own Problems And Fill Their Own Needs With Dignity And Strength.
