Money collections were set up at the gates of more than 20 factories around the city. During the day in Los Angeles, strikers stayed at the Church of Father Luce while Susie Villalobos provided the food. According to the newspaper El Malcriado, on that day strikers were able to collect $5,200 for the Farm Workers Defense Fund. Father John Luce (1930-2012) served as Rector of the Church of the Epiphany from 1965 to 1973 and he often invited C\u00e9sar Ch\u00e1vez to preach from the pulpit and to give organizing workshops whenever he was around. He was brought in to improve the relationship between the Church of the Epiphany and the Mexican American neighborhood. He immediately made visible changes, like decorating the church with papel picado and culturally relevant banners. He commissioned Chicana\/o artists to reimagine the Episcopalian art, began celebrating D\u00eda de Muertos, and erected a large portrait of La Virgen de Guadalupe by the main altar. He hired local Chicana\/o artists to reimagine the religious motifs, to paint their skin from pinkish to brown.<\/span>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ fullwidth=”on” _builder_version=”4.21.0″ _module_preset=”default” background_color=”#FFFFFF” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_fullwidth_slider _builder_version=”4.21.0″ _module_preset=”default” min_height=”442px” custom_margin=”3px|||||” custom_padding=”98px|||||” hover_enabled=”0″ global_colors_info=”{}” sticky_enabled=”0″][et_pb_slide image=”http:\/\/farmworkermovement-csun.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/FMC_589_full.jpg” _builder_version=”4.21.0″ _module_preset=”default” background_color=”#D22030″ background_enable_color=”on” link_option_url=”https:\/\/cdm17169.contentdm.oclc.org\/digital\/collection\/FMC\/id\/589\/” link_option_url_new_window=”on” global_colors_info=”{}” sticky_transition=”on”]<\/p>\n A group of UFWOC volunteers are counting money after a donation event in Los Angeles.
