MikeDunnAuthorToday in Labor History March 31, 1927: Birth of Cesar Chavez. In 1965, Chavez led farm workers in California on their first grape boycott. The nationwide protest lasted five years and ended with the first union contract for U.S. farm workers outside of Hawaii. In 1966, Chavez’s organization officially became the United Farm Workers. Chavez was inspired by the nonviolent civil disobedience of Gandhi. In addition to strikes, boycotts and pickets, he was famous for going on hunger strikes. Later he became infatuated with the religious cult, Synanon. He used Synanon’s “game” to punish union members and enforce conformity. Chavez also supported the brutal Filipino dictator Ferdinand Marcos. This alienated Filipino members of the union, as well as many of the religious organizations that had supported the UFW.<a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/LaborHistory" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#LaborHistory</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/workingclass" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#workingclass</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/CesarChavez" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#CesarChavez</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/FarmWorkers" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#FarmWorkers</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/ufw" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ufw</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/chicano" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#chicano</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/mexicanamerican" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#mexicanamerican</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/union" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#union</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/strike" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#strike</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/boycot" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#boycot</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/filipino" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#filipino</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/hungerstrike" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#hungerstrike</a>

MikeDunnAuthorToday in Labor History March 14, 1954: Salt of the Earth premiered. The film depicted the 1951 strike of Mexican-American workers at the Empire Zinc mine, in New Mexico. The film was one of the first to portray a feminist political point of view, particularly through Actress Rosaura Revueltas’s role as Esperanza Quintero. When the Company uses the new Taft-Hartley Act (which also bans General Strikes) to impose an injunction preventing the men from picketing, their wives go walk the picket line in their places. LGBTQ and labor activist Will Geer also played in the film. Writer Michael Wilson, director Herbert Biberman and producer Paul Jarrico had all been blacklisted for their alleged communist ties. Only 13 of the 13,000 theaters in the U.S. showed the film. <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/workingclass" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#workingclass</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/LaborHistory" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#LaborHistory</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/SaltOfTheEarth" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#SaltOfTheEarth</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/strike" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#strike</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/union" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#union</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/generalstrike" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#generalstrike</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/lgbtq" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#lgbtq</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/TaftHartley" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#TaftHartley</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/communism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#communism</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/feminism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#feminism</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/MexicanAmerican" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#MexicanAmerican</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/chicano" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#chicano</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/film" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#film</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/blacklist" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#blacklist</a>

Darrin L RogersDoing interesting work with a <a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/MexicanAmerican" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#MexicanAmerican</a> (formerly just <a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/Mexican" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Mexican</a>) coauthor about <a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/GenderRoles" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#GenderRoles</a> and right-wing <a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/voting" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#voting</a> behavior across multiple ethnic/racial groups. The colleague is a political scientist so his view of things like "masculinity" is different from mine. It's a lot of fun to discuss. I just made this graphic for him and the other authors to stimulate discussion about what we want to measure. The lower-right yellow explosion indicates the discrepancy currently of most interest to me as a measure of masculinity conflict/threat/stress, though I'd truly prefer (and have tried once to construct) a measure that somehow combines all three discrepancies.Submissions to <a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/SPSSI" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#SPSSI</a> are due today for the conference in <a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/portland" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#portland</a> <a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/oregon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#oregon</a> in June.(Note: gender roles and <a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/masculinity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#masculinity</a> are related to my areas of <a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/research" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#research</a> but not central; if you a have notes or suggestions, I'm open to them)<a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/culture" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#culture</a> <a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/politics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#politics</a> <a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/rightwing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#rightwing</a> <a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/PoliticalScience" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#PoliticalScience</a> <a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/PoliticalPsych" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#PoliticalPsych</a>
