The Filipino farm workers who immigrated during the 20s and 30s, known as the Manongs, were unable to establish families in the United States because of anti-miscegenation laws and racial discrimination and didn’t have much support as they entered their later years. Agbayani Village would ensure that these farm workers were taken care of.<\/span><\/p>\n [\/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” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_fullwidth_slider _builder_version=”4.21.0″ _module_preset=”default” custom_padding=”40px||153px|||” hover_enabled=”0″ locked=”off” global_colors_info=”{}” sticky_enabled=”0″][et_pb_slide image=”http:\/\/farmworkermovement-csun.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/No.-6-June-24-1974_Page_01.jpg” _builder_version=”4.21.0″ _module_preset=”default” header_font_size=”46px” background_color=”#D22030″ background_enable_color=”on” background_enable_image=”off” link_option_url_new_window=”on” locked=”off” global_colors_info=”{}” sticky_transition=”on”]<\/p>\n Headline reading “Agbayani Village Dedicated” on the cover of El Malcriado Issue 6, June 24, 1974<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_slide][et_pb_slide image=”http:\/\/farmworkermovement-csun.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/No.-6-June-24-1974_Page_09_v1.jpg” _builder_version=”4.21.0″ _module_preset=”default” header_font_size=”46px” background_color=”#D22030″ background_enable_color=”on” background_enable_image=”off” link_option_url_new_window=”on” locked=”off” global_colors_info=”{}” sticky_transition=”on”]<\/p>\n “Candido Taclibon embraces C\u00e9sar Ch\u00e1vez at the dedication of Agbayani Village in Delano June 15.
