Chavez decided to then launch a boycott of two of Delano's main growers, Schenley Industries and DiGiorgio. Chavez organized a massive march of 300 miles from Delano to Sacramento, the state capital. This is the longest protest march ever in the United States. Not only was it a march, it was a journey that drew the Catholic faith of many of the strikers. Marchers sang “Nosotros Venceremos” the civil rights anthem as they carried portraits of the Virgin of Guadalupe, which is Mexico’s saint and symbol of hope, they also carried large crosses representing Christ's final journey and flags including the NFWA's black eagle. As the march made its way across California, hope built, and in each town they passed through, they attracted new supporters.

This letter is to provide potential verification that Martha Chavez may have had attendance in our adult education program at Visalia Adult School in December 2000. We do not have attendance records for that period of time as our system has been replaced with an updated version. However, when I review Ms. Chavez’ transcript, I see that I provided a grade and credit for a math course in April 2001. This suggests that she may have had attendance that spanned from November 13, 2000 (her entry date) through April 2001 and beyond.
The article “Cesar Chavez Saved My Life,” written by Daniel “Nane” Alejandrez reflects on Mr. Alejandraz’s past, covering some very unfortunate events, but with a purpose of pulling emotion from the reader. While reading some parts of the article, I had to reread it over a few times to comprehend the point that the author was trying to make. The most important thing about knowing his past is that it is significantly different, and much more positive in the future because of one person, Cesar Chavez.

She has taken Joseph with her on most occasions and she reports that over all he did fine. However, he did have a few instances of pacing and tearing his shirt for unknown reasons. Additionally, she reports that now that they have been home more frequent, she sees that some of his repetitive behaviors have increased (pacing, asking for car rides) and sleep patterns have been off causing her to be with up with him at night. In the past, these behaviors lead to Joseph becoming aggressive and anxious.

The Closing of the American Mind, as the title says, is Alan Bloom 's attempt to both expose and dissect the flaws found within our nation’s higher education system, claiming that it has failed not only democracy as a whole, but has also been detrimental to the students therein. In support his claims, Bloom brings to the foreground the “new” set of beliefs that have been uncritically accepted on college campuses nationwide. These beliefs contain the open principles of relativism and multiculturalism, both of which Bloom goes on to explain have no place nor value in the real world. This opening to principles of tolerance and acceptance, Bloom argues, have resulted in a closing of the American mind, discouraging students to discuss and promote their own ideas—specifically, those that do not conform to conventional ideals. At the university level, where multiculturalism has been promoted and allowed to thrive, Bloom finds that education has been undermined, in the worst possible way (without rationality).
