Very nice!!! Well written and informative. I was only a kid during the grape boycott, but I remember it well. We didn't eat grapes, but were to young to understand why. Thank you!

Thanks for your comments. A small thing, I suppose, to refrain from eating grapes. But whether you knew it or not, you were part of one of the most vital movements for social justice ever, one that needed the support of every single person who honored the boycott.

Thankyou, a well written, well documented story about a well loved man, who loved and cared for the lives of others. There need to be more like him today. K.L. Farnum
