RCCC is committed to educating communities throughout Albuquerque and the state about the legacy, life, and work of the great American civil rights activists Cesar Chavez and Dolores Huerta. This year marks the 30th anniversary of those efforts.
RCCC shares the vision that Cesar and Dolores championed – that nonviolence is our strength and in recognition of their remarkable history of nonviolent resistance, this year’s Celebration is conducted in the spirit of “Sí Se Puede”, “Yes, we can.” Join us as we gather in solidarity with others around the country in support of the movement toward nonviolence.
