We Also Have a Dream

Like Martin Luther King, we Latinos also have dreams.

We dream of the right to be treated as equals. We aspire to have work that lets us live with dignity. We want the opportunity to contribute ideas in a meaningful way. We dream that our children will have a good education and live in a better world.

Justice and dignity are issues of supreme importance in our lives. Latinos can and want to be creative. We embrace the idea that we should be judged by our work and our efforts. We want the right to demonstrate we are capable of achieving what we set out to do.

Solidarity is key to our success. Solidarity means helping and backing each other. Supporting actions taken among ourselves is important. Like the name of our magazine, solidarity is the characteristic that should distinguish us.

We Latinos and Latinas who are members of the UAW have an organization that backs us up. Belonging to the UAW is important to us. You are equally important to the UAW.

Let us unite with one another, and I assure you our dreams will become reality.

In solidarity,
Haydeé Charriez
