Latinx/e Activism Week is a collaborative effort between EL Centro, APACC, and a variety of campus partners to commemorate the historical contributions of Cesar Chavez, Dolores Huerta, Larry Itliong, Philip Vera Cruz, and the farmworkers rights movements. This year we want to highlight coalition building and cross-cultural advocacy work that has happened and continues to happen between the Latinx/e community and the APIDA community. Programming during this week seeks to honor our history while uplifting the contemporary activists, advocates and leaders who continue to contribute to advocacy for civil and worker’s rights in Colorado, Fort Collins and beyond. Our hope is that CSU students and community members who engage in this programming can reflect and learn skills regarding different forms of advocacy and activism while building upon our historical legacies.
