Miguel Palafox, a 47-year-old undocumented farmworker, remains optimistic about his future in the U.S. despite the challenges posed by Trump's administration. Living in the U.S. since 1989, he has held a work permit for 11 years and marched for the first time on March 31, a significant date honoring Cesar Chavez's legacy. Alongside thousands in Delano, California, Palafox and other protesters emphasized the importance of fighting for immigrant rights, with Paul Chavez advocating for collective action against fear and oppression by Trump's regime. The march paid homage to Chavez's endeavors in defending undocumented workers.
It's a significant town for Latinos in the country, as the legend of Cesar Chavez... was forged in these lands. In the face of all these attacks, it's important to teach people who are afraid that they have to fight back.
We decided to honor [Cesar Chavez's] birthday with a big protest... to announce to everyone that we are here and that we are going to fight against Trump and his henchmen.
