Story summary

Dolores Huerta, a 96-year-old labor rights leader and civil rights icon, died on October 28, according to her family's statement posted on social media. Huerta co-founded the United Farm Workers union with Cesar Chavez in the 1960s and was instrumental in organizing the historic Delano grape strike, which led to better wages and working conditions for farmworkers. Despite her significant contributions, Huerta faced controversy when she accused Chavez of rape earlier this year, leading many organizations across California to remove monuments dedicated to him. Huerta continued advocating for workers' rights until recently, with her family asking for privacy as they mourn her loss.
