Lalo on CALÓ: A new day — After the horrible revelations about farm labor leader Cesar Chavez, many felt that we should not put anybody on a pedestal. I slightly disagree.

Under the hardest working conditions, and pay that is not close to what they deserve, they show up to work day after day to feed this country.
