Listen to the shocking, heart-wrenching story of Antonio Salazar-Hobson, who was the eleventh of fourteen migrant farmworker children born in Phoenix, Arizona.
At age four, he was kidnapped by a childless, middle-aged white couple and was trafficked until the age of ten.
As a teenager, Antonio met Cesar Chavez and was taken under his wing, a miracle which helped define his life.
Antonio worked with Cesar over the next two decades. Antonio got a master's from Stanford in Latin American Studies as a Danforth Fellow, then went on to graduate law school from UC Davis Law School and became a labor lawyer, working with the United Farmworkers and large international unions for the past thirty years.
He is the author of the memoir Antonio, We Know You.
