00:30I come here out of respect for one of the heroic figures of our time, Cesar Chavez.
00:41I was born in Yuma, Arizona, a ranch owned by my family.
00:45We lost it in the Depression.
00:47That's where I witnessed the injustice suffered by the people.
00:51To be successful, we have to have an army of boycotters willing to do the hard work.
00:56The bigger the army, the bigger the success.
00:59Farm workers in Delano, California, have begun an unprecedented strike in the Central Valley.
01:05The citizens of Delano, they respect the law.
01:08So do we, especially the Bill of Rights.
01:11Have you seen the headlines they're getting?
01:13That's costing us real money, Mr. Bogdanovich.
01:16We don't have to negotiate.
01:18We have to dictate terms.
01:20Cesar, they will shoot.
01:21We're going to break this damn strike.
01:24It's all lies.
01:25They're saying strike is not legal,
01:27they're paying us to look like criminals.
01:29I failed you as a leader,
01:30and I will fast until everyone makes a pledge recommitting themselves to nonviolence.
01:36Does he know what he's doing to you?
01:38No, he doesn't.
01:39They've been coming in bigger numbers ever since Chavez quit eating.
01:43How long can a man go without food?
01:45It depends on the man, John.
01:46Everything depends on the man.
01:58Once social change begins,
02:01you can't be reversed.
02:02You can't humiliate someone who has pride.
02:04And you can't oppress someone
02:07who's not afraid anymore.
02:16You can't oppress someone
02:18You can't oppress someone
02:20You can't oppress someone
02:20You can't oppress someone
02:20You can't oppress someone
