Trace the life and legacy of labor activist Cesar Chavez. Through interviews with Maya Angelou, Joan Baez, Carlos Santana and more, see how music and the arts were instrumental to the success of the social movement Chavez helped found, which mobilized thousands of farmworkers across the United States.
The documentary also explores other facets of Cesar’s life — from childhood to his final days — revelations that, until now, have not been shared on screen.
