Summary Of Hugo Chavez's The Bolivarian Republic Of Venezuela

Cesar Chavez was a civil rights leader and a labor union organizer who delivered a carefully crafted speech by acknowledging the perspective of his audience in order to vouch for the use of nonviolence over violence. While Chavez is arguing against the use of violence, he refrains from blaming anyone who had ever used violence. He manages to gain the trust of the audience by presenting himself as an understanding and compassionate individual, which allows them to be more receptive to his message.

By doing this, he reinforces the messages that Martin Luther King Jr. passed down with the civil rights movement. King’s and Chavez’s effects on their respective movements still ring true today, with protests from oppressed minority groups actually creating change in the topics that they are protesting against. An example of this is the Black Lives Matter movement, where people of all races protest the disproportionate killings of African-Americans by police officers. These two figureheads are truly the most influential people involved in the civil rights

Cesar Chavez once explained the horrors of society when he said, “When the man who feeds the world by toiling in the fields is himself deprived of the basic rights of feeding, sheltering and caring for is family, the whole community of man is sick.” (ufw.org) That means that the whole of humanity is sick and cruel when the man who works the fields all day long to feed the all of the citizens of the entire world can’t even provide for himself. It was not a small amount of people it affected, it was millions, and millions of citizens across the world. Chavez was a large factor in beginning to abolish racism, or also called the Civil Rights Movement.

To make Chavez’s point about nonviolence more effective, he makes an allusion to Gandhi. To validate his claim about the importance of nonviolence to create change, he states, “The boycott, as Gandhi taught, is the most nearly perfect instrument of nonviolence change, allowing masses of people to participate actively in a cause.” Here, Chavez makes an allusion to Gandhi because he was one of the earliest examples of using nonviolence as a way to protest. So, just like what King Jr. did to fight nonviolently to impose change, it emphasizes Chavez’s point since he’s using an example of someone else who has done this. Also, by using Gandhi and how he states that nonviolence is a perfect way to combat something since it allows everyone to participate, it reveals how nonviolence is used as a way to unify people for a cause unlike violence which promotes the injury and death of others. So, this helps prove that nonviolence is

Chavez used his life experiences in order to better the lives of many migrant workers in America. Key points in Chavez’s life that had

During his time at the CSO, he had met Dolores Huerta, a woman who shared his passion for obtaining farm worker’s civil rights. His plan was to fight for the rights of the migrant and resident farm workers in California. To achieve this goal, Chavez set out to form a “viable union” among the thousands of disenfranchised farm workers.

“We draw our strength from the very despair in which we have been forced to live. We shall endure”(Cesar Chavez). Growing up, Cesar Chavez worked in many fields and labor camps, and he immigrated to many different states, but he was able to become successful, despite his previous hardships. Chavez was born on March 31st 1927 in a small town near Yuma, Arizona, but because his family was in search of work, they never stayed in the same town very long. During the Great Depression, his family had lost their farm, so they had no choice but to move to California to become a migrant farm worker. He hardly ever went to school because of his work in the fields, but when he did go to school, he was discriminated

Chavez wanted to help immigrants and chicanos against discrimination because they weren’t getting the same amount of rights as the americans were getting and heard many complaints about it as he traveled between Arizona and California. As an immigrant and knowing the pain

While often forgotten in historical documentaries about the man, Chavez’s views on illegal immigration was very critical. To quote Cesar Chavez, “There is no way to defend against strike breaking when they bring in… wetback, illegals” (Chavez, 2013). Chavez viewed undocumented workers as a detriment to his union, and by his unwillingness to work with such peoples this became a self fulfilling prophecy. “The United States… (has only) made it more and more difficult for people to immigrate and settle as legal permanent residents” (Rodriguez, 2010), meaning that there was an increase in undocumented

To say Cesar Chavez was born into a less fortunate family would be an understatement. He was born and raised on a farm near the city of Yuma in Arizona. He lived there until around the age of 12 when the great depression wiped out his farm. Then his family decided to move to California to start new and in the 7th grade he dropped out of school and helped his family on their new farm. He worked on his family farm until he was old enough to go to the

Chavez incredibly quit being a migrant worker and instead became a civil rights activist to fight for migrant workers all around the United States. His connection to the migrant workers allows Chavez to slyly lure the migrant workers to support each other against the farm

Ultimately, Chavez’s empathetic approach to social justice spurred the movement leading to the mobilization of common

As I said before, many critics agreed that Hugo Chavez has been able to diminished Venezuelan democracy to convert it to a competitive authoritarian regime. Chavez has controlled the country and stills does, in a way in that using populism and his policy of clientism he gets the masses and specially the poor to support him and agreed with him in many of his reforms and actions. Allying himself with leftist countries like Bolivia, Ecuador, Nicaragua and especially Cuba, Chavez has implemented what he calls a “Bolivarian Revolution”, revolution that allows him to have a complete control of the country. Furthermore, Chavez has been using the oil revenues not only as a method of getting international support for his ideas and type of regime but also, for his own personal enrichment

The political system in Venezuela is communist or socialist, depending on how one defines the terms and views the nation. The official name of Venezuela is the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela, an allusion to the revolutions started by Simon Bolivar in many areas of South America. The majority of those countries are socialist or communist in their governmental systems. Nicholas Maduro is the current president, and can serve as president for as many terms as he wants. The United Socialist Party, or PSUV, is one of the major parties in the nation. The PUSV, formerly unchallenged in power, lost the most recent
