I don’t mean to throw shade at what looks like a really great movie. But I think it’s important to talk about whose stories get told — who gets selected as important and significant and worthy of having a story to be told. And the reality is that the ways that process happens — even in our own progressive communities — is raced, classed, and gendered. Yes. While I am very glad that a movie about Cesar Chavez is opening up and while I am going to see it on opening night, I am very aware that we almost never hear anything about Dolores Huerta. We need to.
