The person that i am researching on is a person name Cesar Chavez. Cesar Chavez is a person who wasn’t getting enough money by working as a migrant worker who gathered fruits and vegetables just like so many mexican american workers, so he and many other mexican-american workers marched on the street and to show their  boss that they has the rights to make  more money because they worked hard to earn the money. Cesar chavez also created a new way to show the people that treated him like he was  not a person by not eating for multiple days, by which means that he offered to give up his life in order to show how many farm workers feels when they are being treated badly.   Oppression happened to Cesar Chavez because he had a different color than  those who had more money than him, so those with more privilege took advantage of people who were from another country and who look different from them.  People who took advantages of the migrant workers can be the person they work for because i guess that person can be racist or something that makes him think that just because they are different race that they don’t deserve to to get equal pays as other american citizens.     In my resistance image the person that is being oppressed is the immigrant workers because they are not being paid on what they deserve and the oppressor is the boss that the immigrant workers work for. The boss is the oppressor because he is neglecting the immigrant workers by paying them less and he is also benefiting from them by him gaining ore money.     This is the link to the oppression that he faced. http://www.smithsonianmag.com/history/how-cesar-chavez-changed-the-world-3735853/     The person who wrote this article is Miriam Pawel. This source is a magazine. This article was written on November 2013.   This is a quote from the article that i read about cesar chavez and it states,“There are vivid memories from my childhood—what we had to go through because of low wages and the conditions, basically because there was no union,” he wrote in 1966. “I suppose if I wanted to be fair I could say that I’m trying to settle a personal score. I could dramatize it by saying that I want to bring social justice to farmworkers. But the truth is that I went through a lot of hell, and a lot of people did. If we can even the score a little for the workers then we are doing something.” This mean that it wasn’t only him who went through hard times it was all the farm workers too. He also said that his childhood was hell because their family couldn’t afford things due to low wages. Based on  the criteria for reliable sources I think that this information is not trustworthy because the article was published on March 25,2014 and the actual event happened around the 1960’s , which means that this information and evidence that she provided cannot be trusted as a solid form of information. This is also a secondary source because since the event happen a long time ago and she did not witnessed we can’t suggest that her information is true.   The category of oppression that is being described is Economic systems, but it can also be Social systems  because Economic systems  organize people based of things they need , the things they make,and how things are shared. So in Cesar chavez situation ,immigrants or people who were mexican were being organized of the things they need by them working and them being labeled as low paid people. The category of oppression that is being described can also be Social systems because social organize people based on the relationship they have with one another and how they behave in those relationship and in this situation the boss is not paying immigrants or people who weren’t born in america the money they deserve but they pay other people who works just as hard as them more money.   The level of oppression that s being described is interpersonal oppression because people like cesar chavez are being oppressed by the people that have more privileged  and the thing is is that there are other people who works the same job but gets paid more because they are different from other people like cesar chavez because of their skin color or because of their background and or where they come from.   Something that caused oppression in Mr.Chavez situation may have been related to racial issue. Cesar chavez was a Mexican-American who when him and his family couldn’t afford a living in Arizona they went to work as Migrant workers in California. Migrant workers were a great percentage of Mexican-American, some might think that it was good for the United States government to provide jobs for those who were legal. The thing is was that the great deal of percentage of  Mexican-American migrant workers weren’t being paid  as much as they deserve and they didn’t have the rights  as other American citizens who works just as hard as they did.   The Oppression that Cesar Chavez and Mexican-American workers experienced also had an effect. Cesar Chavez was a hard working young man who had to drop out of school to help his family with work. Later, on Cesar chavez became a Latino civil rights group. Six years later Cesar Chavez became the CSO national director, he then travel throughout California and made speeches in support of worker’s rights. Cesar chavez organized many boycotts and strikes. Many Mexican-American migrants workers also joined the strikes and Boycott. Cesar chavez created a new way to resist, he fasted 25 days to declare Nation Grape Boycott Day and also fasted 36 days to protest pesticides use.

Do you think Colonization, the Encomienda System, and the African Slave trade still influence people’s lives today?  Explain your answer.

I think that the Colonization, the Encomienda System, and the African Slave trade still influence people’s lives today because the events that happen are written in the course of history And this history of event that have occur is taught all over the world as an inspiration to those who fought. In 2016 there are many laws that oppress different color of people who thinks that what have happen in the past should never happen again and some laws may even defy that but that’s why this event still influence people they see this course of history as strength and they acknowledge what happen  to prove that what happen will never be done again And now many are protesting for police brutality against black people.
