Something about this never sat right with me…
And now, hearing Dolores Huerta speak about her experience, it’s bringing up a deeper truth.
We can hold two things at once—
Gratitude for the work done for farm workers…
and honesty about the harm caused by those in power.
Not every leader who speaks for the people is safe.
Some are driven by ego, control, and the need to be seen as the savior.
And too often, women carry the cost of that behind closed doors.
This isn’t about tearing down a movement—
It’s about telling the full truth.
Because real leadership does not require silence, fear, or harm.
