John Leggett went to Delano and joined the farm worker union movement in September 1965. He has backed the UFW and its forerunners through picket, boycott, and fund raising work for over 25 years. He looks forward to the next wave of labor organizing among the world's farm worker populations. He wishes the farm workers owned the fields they cultivate.
