Dolores Huerta, "The Boycott is Our Major Weapon" (July 15, 1969)
“
Cesar, a priest, a minister, and nine farmworkers were arrested for going into a camp in Borrego Springs, just to get the workers’ clothes after the workers were fired for union activity. They were arrested, stripped naked, and chained by the officers.

They were arrested, stripped naked, and chained by the officers." in the context of "Dolores Huerta, "The Boycott is Our Major Weapon" (July 15, 1969)" to mean that wisdom is timeless.
