Still can’t believe that @myrnzilla and I got to meet @doloreshuerta at her mural unveiling in DTLA. She’s just as amazing in person. It was an honor to share space with her and see her get her flowers. I do hope one day she’ll get to see ¡𝙎í 𝙎𝙚 𝙋𝙪𝙚𝙙𝙚!💛💚

As a native Angeleno, being in an @laistofficial article is an accomplishment. As a Chicano/Mexican-American, portraying Dolores Huerta is an honor. As an actor, getting to see children learn and become inspired has reminded me why art is so powerful. Thank you @ctgla and @ctgcommunity for agreeing that ¡Si Se Puede!

Not only do we have so much to thank farmworkers for (the work they do quite literally nourishes our communities), but we have so much we can learn from them as well. In the 1960s and 70s, their historic fight for better working conditions is an incredible example of what’s possible when we organize, stand together, and demand change. We’re proud to currently be touring our production of ¡SÍ SE PUEDE! in community spaces, libraries, and schools across Los Angeles and sharing the story of Dolores Huerta’s unwavering commitment to justice. From co-founding the United Farmworkers and leading boycotts, marches, and high-stakes negotiations, she reminds us that hard battles have been fought and won. And will continue to be fought and won.

@myrnzilla is playing Talia! Myrna Velasco is a Mexican American actor born and raised in Los Angeles. Though she was born to cause chaos, she’s been trained to let out the chaos in story telling. So lucky to have her involved! #indiefilm #intheredfilm #actress #knife #storyteller
