00:00:28like me, what, what did Dolores do Working for you.
00:00:32Good morning and welcome to Comunidad del
00:00:35in the Valle, I'm Damián Trugillo, on today's there picking and pruning and show, the elections have arrived, we'll talk about that today on
00:00:39your Comunidad del Valle.
00:00:52because what she
00:01:01We will also talk today on Comunidad del Valle about the passing of Dolores Hurta,
00:01:05but first we start with the elections and to
00:01:08those same values representing talk with us throughout the program is Professor Jesús, professor at
00:01:12San Jose State and also at San Jose City College, he joins
00:01:15us here in Comunidad del Valle, welcome to the program,
00:01:20her supporters thank you very much Damián for having me here, thank you for being here, I see on your
00:01:24shirt the Stanford symbol, a Stanford graduate with your
00:01:27master's degree, what pride, right? yes,
00:01:32listening to what forever, congratulations, well, look, this Tuesday the
00:01:35elections here in California, we have already been able to vote for a couple of
00:01:38weeks by mail, but how big,
00:01:41how significant are these elections this
00:01:44season? Well, really in all my life it is, I think, the most
00:01:48important, one of the most important, because it is an
00:01:51opportunity to establish
00:01:55more balance in the national government, since
00:01:59one party controls the White House and
00:02:01Congress and and then there are always
00:02:05our community always has
00:02:09many, many important things
00:02:1225,995 and with to vote on, look, it is predicted that perhaps
00:02:1555 to 60% of those who are
00:02:18eligible to vote will vote, what they tell me is that
00:02:2240% will not vote,
00:02:25and we continue here in Comunidad del Valle with those are the ones who will complain in the future that this happens, this does not
00:02:27happen, there are many consequences to not voting.
00:02:30especially in Too many, Damián, and especially for our people, since
00:02:34there are many, many members of our
00:02:37communities who cannot vote, they are immigrants, they are not, they are not citizens,
00:02:42I know that her family so, uh, if
00:02:44will do their best to one is a citizen, it is important to use that power
00:02:47that others do not have and
00:02:50also for this election uh those who cannot
00:02:53vote can promote voting among
00:02:57our community and well, I
00:03:01I say that we can all do our
00:03:04part and already
00:03:06this for all the people it can be stronger,
00:03:10more powerful with everyone
00:03:13participating in the
00:03:15here in Comunidad del Valle, you can follow me on way they can, if all the Latinos like you and me
00:03:18across the country would vote, what a great thing
00:03:22it would be, look what happened in
00:03:24Texas a week ago, Los Tigres del Norte with the band of
00:03:28Democrats throughout the state, the
00:03:32idols of the people are trying to encourage the people
00:03:36to vote, yes I saw it and it's something very
00:03:40wonderful and well I I want to be optimistic because when
00:03:44I see things like that and
00:03:46what is happening everywhere, there is a lot
00:03:50of enthusiasm in voting in our people
00:03:53especially what we have seen about the
00:03:56injustices, raids and etc. and look
00:04:00the ballot this year here in California is long,
00:04:02there are 14 propositions, there are
00:04:06candidates for school board and
00:04:09council, mayoralties, what do
00:04:12I know, so you have to study the ballot well before filling in the
00:04:15bubble, exactly and I always tell my
00:04:19students, before one well
00:04:21you looked at the names, for
00:04:25example those who are running campaigns and
00:04:28and one or another Hispanic name, right, but
00:04:32we are already more and and it's not
00:04:34just to see if it's a person with an
00:04:38Hispanic name, we have to
00:04:41read the platform, what
00:04:44they are going to fight for and
00:04:47really if they are representing the needs that
00:04:51exist in the community, yes, let's see what
00:04:54are the values of that person, whether it's a man,
00:04:58woman, candidates throughout the... we have to study that ballot to
00:05:02mark and see that it agrees with perhaps
00:05:05one's thoughts, well, for more information, don't
00:05:09go away because we continue with you throughout the program, for more information, if
00:05:13you want to vote, there is the website of the California Secretary of State,
00:05:17there you can find out, if you still don't know where

00:05:28elections, we continue here in Comunidad del
00:05:30Valle,

00:06:39free community pantry, in your city, in your neighborhood
00:06:44affects you, Telemundo news 48 working for
00:06:48you,
00:06:51my vote changes nothing, in
00:06:53California, elections have been decided by a single
00:06:57vote, decision 2026,
00:07:00your voice, your vote,
00:07:04Telemundo Responde and NBC Response have recovered more than
00:07:07100 million dollars for our viewers nationwide
00:07:11and here in the
00:07:28it is great support that Telemundo 48 provides to the community Responds
00:07:32working for you
00:07:37Professor Jesús from San José State and San José City
00:07:41College. Well, we have talked for
00:07:45decades, Chuy, about how the sleeping giant
00:07:48that is the Latino voter is going to wake up and will wake up, has
00:07:52it already woken up, are we still waking up, are we still
00:07:54asleep?
00:07:57Well, what I have seen is a lot of
00:08:00action in our people and and hopes
00:08:04that this movement of
00:08:07getting involved in what our
00:08:11civil rights are to participate in a
00:08:14democracy and voting is
00:08:17a way to participate and in your
00:08:20classes you have people who are perhaps going to vote for the first time in your classes
00:08:24at San Jose State and City College because they have just turned
00:08:2718 or perhaps they are 19 and didn't vote last time,
00:08:31but what do they tell you, what do they talk about, are they active, are they
00:08:35interested or is it a hobby for them?
00:08:38Uh well it's really a mix, right.
00:08:42But what we have done
00:08:46is to educate young people
00:08:49generally on why it is important
00:08:52to vote and what happens when one does not vote
00:08:55and and if we are a large
00:08:59majority, especially in this state, then we have to
00:09:02use that power and and really what
00:09:06we have seen historically is that young people are
00:09:09interested because it is
00:09:12their future, for us older people
00:09:15it's not so much, but they
00:09:18are the future and they know that they are the future, yes, we are already
00:09:22leaving, they are coming in, but look
00:09:25Chuy, in Mexico, in other Latin American
00:09:27countries, Latin America,
00:09:31people have shed blood to obtain that right to
00:09:35vote, shed blood, they have died and one
00:09:39is like, oh, I wonder if I vote, I wonder if not, we are...
00:09:42giving that opportunity to vote if we don't vote, yes, not
00:09:45only in Latin America, but if one has
00:09:49knowledge of the civil rights movement in this country, one can also
00:09:52see that especially in the era of the 60s and
00:09:5670s there
00:09:59were many
00:10:01obstacles, a lot of injustice
00:10:05and and the right to
00:10:09vote has always been something
00:10:13not naturally obtained,
00:10:17there has always been in this country a
00:10:20movement to fight for that right to vote, years
00:10:24ago, here on this program. Well, there has
00:10:27been a lot of disillusionment because there have been elections where
00:10:3115% of Latino voters turned out, 17%,
00:10:35which is almost nothing, it's a shame if
00:10:38we have that opportunity, Chuy, and we don't go vote, and yes,
00:10:42as I said, many Latino citizens have
00:10:45parents, perhaps uncles, grandparents who are not
00:10:49citizens, so it is
00:10:52very important if you are a young person,
00:10:55who has that right to use that right to
00:10:59represent those who cannot and
00:11:02talk about that pride that one feels when seeing that
00:11:06on top of the candidacy there are
00:11:09people with Latino surnames, well, if they have the
00:11:12same thoughts as oneself, that's another thing, but
00:11:16that some Latino or Latina is at the top, like for
00:11:19governor of California, that he is Latino, what pride it must be,
00:11:22right? Yes, quite a lot, and hopefully
00:11:26our people will rise up to vote and support those
00:11:29candidates who do have
00:11:33the historical struggle of our people and
00:11:36and well, as I tell you, I am very
00:11:40optimistic this year, many hopes must be had
00:11:44for something better,
00:11:46perfect, professor, anything else you want to add regarding the elections here in
00:11:50Comunidad de Valle? Well, as a very
00:11:54important person said, she started the saying that "Sí se puede" (Yes we can),
00:11:58"Sí se puede, sí se puede," (Yes we can, yes we can) we are going to talk about that person in the next
00:12:01segment, we are talking about Dolores Huerta who passed away
00:12:04here last Wednesday, well for more information, if you
00:12:08don't know where you can vote, there is the website of the California Secretary
00:12:12of State for you to check where you can vote if you have not received
00:12:16your ballot by mail, we continue here in Comunidad del

00:14:31and we continue here in Comunidad del Valle with Jesús Cubarruyas,
00:14:35professor at San José State and San José City College with us
00:14:38in Comunidad del Valle, well, this past
00:14:41Wednesday Dolores Huerta passed away at 96
00:14:45years old, tell us about your reaction to receiving this
00:14:48news, well, it is really a great
00:14:51loss for our people, but she,
00:14:55represented and was a very great symbol
00:14:59in in this nation, not only for the
00:15:03Latino people, but for everyone and
00:15:06especially because the struggles she
00:15:10participated in were at a time when
00:15:13the participation of
00:15:16women in leadership positions was not
00:15:20seen and well,
00:15:22she gave us... a lot to
00:15:26be inspired by, really, and
00:15:29she received a lot of criticism at that time, Chuy, because many people told
00:15:33her that she shouldn't be in the campaigns, that she should be at home.
00:15:37Oh, that she was a woman and that it was in the 60s and that
00:15:40she was out of her place, that's right,
00:15:43she was someone who stood up to
00:15:47racism and sexism at a time when it was not
00:15:51seen so much, she did it with great
00:15:55sacrifice and
00:15:58well, there will always be critics, right, but at the same time
00:16:02one can see the long-term life of a person,
00:16:05the facts and the
00:16:07facts speak. A lot, she was
00:16:11the one who invented the saying "sí se puede" (yes we can), as you
00:16:15mentioned, she was the one who introduced it to the entire farmworkers' union,
00:16:18and what a way to communicate to the people, right, that
00:16:22today we are still using that phrase, "sí se
00:16:25puede" (yes we can), yes, especially
00:16:29was trying to do
00:16:32as a civil and labor rights
00:16:35fighter was
00:16:39something that many farmworkers really did not think could
00:16:42be achieved there in the fields,
00:16:45they were trying to convince the farmworkers and many
00:16:48farmworkers working saying it can't be done, well, how to
00:16:52say, you're crazy, it can't be done and she and
00:16:58began to shout "sí se puede,
00:17:01sí se puede" (yes we can, yes we can), that's where it came from, so it was to contradict what
00:17:05those who were working in the field were saying, that's
00:17:09how it started, by
00:17:12convincing those who were very oppressed in the
00:17:15field, that if they united,
00:17:18a great change could be made, thank you, thank you for
00:17:22emphasizing that, I love it and well Chuy, she passed away at
00:17:2596 years old, at 95 and a half she was still fighting for
00:17:29those rights, yes, I had the
00:17:33honor and privilege of meeting Dolores Huerta because
00:17:36as a professor, she always
00:17:40came to inspire students and
00:17:44several times she came to San José State University, to San José
00:17:48City College, and
00:17:51I was impressed because at that old age,
00:17:54still with a lot of energy,
00:17:57I remember she before talking to
00:18:00the students at the college, she was on the phone with
00:18:03senators, those from the state assembly and
00:18:07we are going there now but I am here, and she was
00:18:10more mobilized than a younger person
00:18:14and I was very impressed, the students
00:18:18very motivated with her presentation
00:18:21every time she came, very good, thanks to Chuy, well Dolores
00:18:25Huerta passed away, we continue here in Comunidad del Valle, we talk a little more about
00:18:29Dolores Huerta and we continue with you here so don't go away,

00:19:49In San Francisco working for you Flavio Lacá and Telemundo news
00:19:5248.
00:19:57And we continue here in Comunidad del Valle with Jesús Cubarruyas, professor at San José
00:20:00State and San José City College. Well, I, there will
00:20:04never be another one.
00:20:08Is there another Dolores Huerta, is there another person who has
00:20:12perhaps taken the reins after her passing
00:20:15and can continue the struggle that
00:20:19Dolores started? Well, she was indeed unique, right,
00:20:22but I say that there are many women who
00:20:25have been inspired to fight
00:20:29against sexism, against
00:20:32discrimination, injustices, I know that
00:20:35there are many women especially
00:20:38inspired by her who
00:20:41are continuing that struggle and
00:20:44we hope that they can take us all to another
00:20:48higher level because that struggle against
00:20:51injustices, discrimination, is
00:20:55something that unfortunately
00:20:57continues in our lives, just as when she started in the
00:21:0160s, with more desire,
00:21:05now that she is gone, hopefully it inspires us
00:21:08more, you are originally from
00:21:12Salinas, you know a lot about what it is to work in the field, Chuy, just
00:21:18for you, for me, for the rest of the farmworkers who were
00:21:25pipes, well, there is a song, I don't
00:21:29remember specifically the verse, but those
00:21:32who were bent over raised their heads, they stood up,
00:21:36it was
00:21:39a time of great oppression
00:21:43and quite strong
00:21:46abuses and when she started
00:21:49to raise her voice, she,
00:21:52many farmworkers who
00:21:56had the same complaints,
00:21:58she gave them
00:22:02encouragement and perhaps a sense
00:22:05of power they had never had, and
00:22:08especially when they started leaving the fields, they started
00:22:12to march to make their demands, she was
00:22:16one of the first to negotiate with the ranchers.
00:22:21And and I think that was quite
00:22:25impressive at that time for a
00:22:28woman to negotiate against ranchers who were all
00:22:32Anglo men and
00:22:35she achieved, she achieved the first contracts
00:22:39because she was called the
00:22:42dragon woman by the ranchers
00:22:45because of how she spoke and contradicted them
00:22:48and corrected them when they spoke
00:22:51with so much sexism and everything,
00:22:54she didn't give up, no, and
00:22:57it was as the ranchers say, they were Anglo-Saxons, they had a lot of
00:23:01power, a lot of money, with the support of the governor of California and other
00:23:04states, and and she didn't give up, anything else Chuy that
00:23:08you want to add about Dolores Huerta,
00:23:11well, it is I have high hopes that
00:23:14now that she is gone we can,
00:23:20schools, begin to develop more
00:23:23knowledge about her deeds, about the
00:23:26sacrifices she made and
00:23:34maintain that legacy of what she gave us with so much
