Read about Mexican-American labor leader and civil rights activist Cesar Chavez in the latest installment of Hispanic Star's series of engaging, illustrated biographies for young readers, published in English and Spanish.

Meet labor leader and civil rights activist, Cesar Chavez--once just a kid from Yuma, Arizona whose family would eventually migrate to San Jose, California amid the poverty of the Great Depression. At a young age, Cesar experienced anti-Latino prejudice as an agriculture laborer, and eventually co-founded the National Farm Workers Association (NFWA) (later known as the United Farm Workers labor union). In 1994, Cesar Chavez received a posthumous Presidential Medal of Freedom, and is recognized as an icon for organized labor in the United States.

Hispanic Star proudly celebrates Hispanic and Latinx heroes who have made remarkable contributions to American culture and have been undeniable forces in shaping its future.
