Les révélations d’une enquête du #NewYorkTimes sur le fils d’immigrés mexicains, travailleur agricole dès l’âge de 10 ans, suscite la consternation dans le pays. Plusieurs Etats ont déjà annoncé l’annulation des célébrations du 31 mars, journée d’hommage à ce héros du peuple latino instaurée par Barack Obama, en 2014. -

“History shows us that women have done this time and again—working to liberate others from a broken system, all while being neglected, unprotected, and left to suffer in silence."

“Women of color will give our whole bodies to create better worlds, and what happens? We’re stuck choosing between liberating others or advocating for ourselves. We’re burdened under the egos and fables of men who used their power to disempower us."

"She deserves justice, and we need to investigate why so many women who are the heartbeats of our movements are made to pay so dearly and are failed by the community so deeply.”

“Abusers thrive on silence. They use decorum, respectability politics, shame, and deceit to manipulate others while abusing their targets.
One of the most powerful things we can do is disrupt this cycle by telling the truth. Shoutout to Dolores Huerta for showing us how courageous we can be when we believe in ourselves."
~ Jenn M. Jackson professor of Black Studies

“The silence she kept for 60 years was not weakness. It was the impossible weight that survivors of sexual violence are forced to carry—often to protect others, often at profound cost to themselves. That she carried it while simultaneously building one of the most important labor movements in American history makes her courage almost incomprehensible."

"This [i.e., Dolores Huerta speaking out about her sexual abuse by Cesar Chavez] is an important opportunity to think about how movements for civil rights and social justice are not immune to the patriarchy and all its violence. There is no place for violence against women and gender non-binary people in the fight for economic and racial justice."

"I'm speaking to other men like what the heck are we doing as young boys, teenagers, young men, people who achieve a level of wealth, status, power that this is acceptable? ...
Because ultimately this has to come down to guys telling other guys, "Hell no. No, this cannot be acceptable.'"

"When these occurrences happen, which is tragically frequently, I find myself wondering what is going on in male culture that breeds this mindset. It's a systemic thing. This is affecting men who are wealthy and poor, white, black, and people of color in sall different sectors and fields. And it's like what the heck are we doing?"

"But these days, as opposed to Cesar Chavez’s days, when women’s rights lagged behind other civil rights advances, there’s a lot more of it in conservative religious settings that intentionally elevate men above women, use harsh parenting to teaching children to unquestioningly obey authority, and restrict women’s roles."

"Because whether you’re talking about Cesar Chavez or Joseph Duggar—that’s right, a second Duggar son has been arrested for the sexual abuse of children—it’s all the same thing.
It’s patriarchy. It’s the abuse of power. It’s some people being assigned a lesser value than other people.
It can happen anywhere, and it does."

"I’ve seen a few more conservative types commenting on the Chavez story with something akin to, “See, abuse happens in liberal circles, too.” And that’s true, it can, and it does.
But this kind of statement is also misleading."

"If Chavez was anything like legions of other men, including Epstein and Pelicot, then he abused and raped girls and women out of the arrogant belief that he had the right to — that their experience of his crimes did not matter. That they did not matter in their bodily autonomy, their dignity, or their personhood."

"We have, in the Chavez case, an important reminder that even progressive politics and the passionate belief in certain kinds of justice is no bulwark against the misogyny that envisages girls and women as, effectively, human property."

"We are taught to hold everything together, to sacrifice ourselves, to endure quietly for the greater good. In Dolores’s own words, she stayed silent for her family, her community, and the farmworker movement to which she devoted her life.
Pues ya basta. Enough is enough."

Tales of abuse from #ActivistBros isn't a new thing. Whether it's being closet abusers or control freaks -- positions of power are ripe for abuse (#Gandhi being another example). "Leaders" should be accountable, and allegations of abuse should always be looked into (yeah, I'm looking at you, #WinonaLaDuke).
#CesarChavez Was a Human Rights Icon. Allegedly, He Was Also Some Women’s Worst Nightmare.
Like so many abusers before him, his sterling public image provided the perfect cover.
By Christina Cauterucci
March 19, 2026"Cesar Chavez was a devoted workers’ rights advocate, a civil rights icon who improved the lives of millions of farmworkers through social activism and political organizing. According to allegations published Wednesday in the New York Times and on Medium, he was also a serial rapist and child abuser.
Multiple women have come forward with stories of being groomed as children and molested as young teens by Chavez. They say he used his position of reverence among labor leaders, Chicanos, and leftist activists to lure them in and earn their parents’ trust—some alleged victims were children of his associates—then told them to keep quiet about the abuse lest other girls get jealous. The accusers include #DoloresHuerta, Chavez’s longtime collaborator and a civil rights luminary in her own right, who said in a statement he pressured her into sex one time and forced her into it another."

The #farmworkermovement has always been bigger and far more important than any one individual. Cesar’s actions do not diminish the permanent improvements achieved for #farmworkers with the help of thousands of people. We must continue to engage and support our community, which needs advocacy and activism now more than ever.

"We don’t need icons. We don’t need exalted, singular, near Christ-like figures who need to be seen as never doing any wrong for the good of a righteous cause. We need people who are willing to do the work and to work to create the kind of community in which victims feel they can come forward."

"Especially now, at a time when Latino immigrants are being demonized and face real danger from the Trump administration. Indeed, both Murguia and Rojas say that people pleaded with them not to come forward now, for fear that unscrupulous characters would use Chavez’s actions to further persecute people like them."

"Their stories are heartbreaking, even moreso because, on top of having to live with the assaults, they have felt they had to hide them in order to protect the movement and the work Chavez did on behalf of Latinos and farm workers writ large."

"Then, this morning, The New York Times published a deeply researched and damning report on how Chavez sexually assaulted at least two young women, and also raped his most prominent ally in the movement, Dolores Huerta, who came forward about this for the first time at the age of 95."

December 4, 1970 - Cesar Chavez was sentenced to 20 days in jail for refusing to call off the United Farm Workers’ consumer boycott of Bud Antle, Inc., the country’s second largest lettuce grower. Antle had signed a contract with Teamsters Local 890 though only 5% of the workers voted to ratify it. Nor had there ever been an election for the workers to choose a union to represent them. The boycott had been called to pressure Antle to negotiate with the Farm Workers.
