Due to unforeseen circumstances, director Peter Bratt's visit has been cancelled. The screening of Dolores will continue as scheduled, but without Peter Bratt in attendance. Dolores Huerta, creator of the slogan “¡Sí Se Puede!” is one of the most important activists in American history, yet is not widely known as such. This documentary depicts her contributions to racial and labor justice issues alongside Cesar Chavez and describes how she became a beacon to feminists and other social-change activists who have participated in other social movements. With this film, Dolores also helps demonstrate the raw and personal sacrifices of becoming and being an activist. (2K DCP Presentation)
