Dolores Huerta
Trigger Warning: This episode contains discussion of sexual assault. Please listen with this with care.
In this week’s episode, Madigan shares the story of Dolores Huerta. The Dolores we knew for many years as a labor union leader, a public speaker, and an activist... and the Dolores we learned of just over a week ago. A survivor of sexual assault by a leader, while under the pressure of upholding an entire movement.
