On July 17, 1988, Cesar Estrada Chavez embarked on a 36-day water-only fast to call attention to the harmful effect pesticides were having on America’s farmworkers and to shine light on their deplorable working and living conditions. This was CESAR’S LAST FAST: 36 days of self-sacrifice and deep spiritual commitment to the fight for justice and dignity for America’s poorest workers. This was the cause, La Causa, to which Cesar Chavez, then 61-years-old, was willing to give up his life. CESAR’S LAST FAST will shine a light on the spiritual landscape that sustained Chavez through decades of struggle, asking us to rethink our place in the world and rediscover our true potential.
