"My father, Cesar Chavez, led heroic grape workers around Delano, California, in the longest continuing farmworkerstrikeinU.S.historyinaprofoundstatement of non-cooperation with a farm labor system that exploits and impoverishes mostly immigrant farm workers. Today, courageous members of the Border Angels are honoring the legacy of my father by making a powerful statement against inhumanity and oppression endured on our border by innocent immigrants."Paul F. ChavezPresident Cesar Chavez FoundationIn the American Southwest and its borderlands, no other social justice advocate has made a greater impact on the lives of undocumented workers than Enrique Morones. In BORDER ANGELS: THE POWER OF ONE, Morones tells his own story (with noted Chicano historian Richard Griswold del Castillo) and the result is a book that unfolds as the singular memoir of someone who took the chance to make a difference-a brave activist who (through his outstanding organization, The Border Angels) saves the lives of legions of borderland sojourners--brave, desperate travelers attempting to cross the hot, beautiful, and dangerous deserts that fuse the nations and the peoples of the United States and Mexico.
