Retired and exhausted. Still recovering from my last job. Liberal, progressive, civil rights supporting, cat lady. Unapologetically political.

A series of tweets that reads "we didn't have a measles outbreak until we let in four years of millions of people pour over our border" 

"I live in Honduras. We vaccinate" 

"I live in American we can choose if we want the shot or not"

Dolores Huerta is one of the most influential labor leaders of the 20th century. Dolores witnessed firsthand how many farm workers in her community suffered from low wages and poor working conditions. As co-founder of United Farm Workers, she organized hugely impactful walkouts and boycotts.
Photo of Dolores Huerta wearing an Aztec headdress, with the words "Latine Heritage Month" above her. Below her it says "Photography Credit: Tom Hilton. Wiki Commons." A quote reads: 'I say that now we see a lot of hateful rhetoric against Mexicans and the Latino community, but we have a very powerful weapon. And that is our vote.'
