Award-Winning Video on SEIU Labor Leader Eliseo Medina Shows Evolution of Immigrant Rights MovementOn Thursday, December 4, the Santa Fe Film Festival will screen Tribute to Eliseo Medina, a short film documenting SEIU Executive Vice President Eliseo Medina’s remarkable career. From a 19-year-old grape-picker to his leadership today as one of the most important labor and immigrant rights leaders in the country, Medina’s story shows us the power of “yes we can” thinking and reminds us how grassroots campaigns can change the course of history.Starting with Medina’s early work alongside Cesar Chavez in the historic United Farm Workers (UFW) strike and ending with his leadership in the immigrant rights marches of 2006, the film documents the growth of unionization among Latino workers and the evolution of the immigrant rights movement.
