"...Latina farmworkers wrote a letter in solidarity with the women and men in Hollywood who had come forward with their stories of sexual harassment. Led by Monica Ramirez at Alianza Nacional de Campesinas, an organization of farmworker women and those from farmworker families, the letter started with, 'Dear Sisters,' and said, 'Even though we work in very different environments, we share a common experience of being preyed upon by individuals who have the power to hire, fire, blacklist and otherwise threaten our economic, physical and emotional security.'”
