Early UFW Marches in Salinas, Watsonville & Sacramento (BY ALEJO FAMILY). NEVER SEEN FOOTAGE!

This video shows footage of the early United Farm Worker (UFW) marches, then UFWOC, in Salinas, Watsonville & Sacramento (State Capitol). This footage was taken by my grandfather & the Alejo Family of Watsonville, California. Old reels had no sound and music was added in the background. Some footage of the Alejo Family returning from some of the marches.

1. March from Castroville to Salinas on Sunday, August 2, 1970
2. March on Main Street in Watsonville on June 13, 1971 (rally at Watsonville High School field).
3. Rally in Sacramento at the State Capitol - Support AB 964 (1971).
