Office For Diversity Women's Week Keynote: Now is the Time!: Activism for Social Change Dolores Huerta Now is the time for women to take charge and own our power! Set your priorities by finding something that is really important and empower yourself to create change. Dolores Huerta's extraordinary life and work will inspire you to find your passion and change the world! "Solos no ganamos nada.” (Alone we achieve nothing.) Co-founder and first VP of the United Farm Workers, Dolores Huerta is the most prominent Chicana labor leader in the United States. For more than 30 years she has dedicated her life to the struggle for justice, dignity, and a decent standard of living for one of the United States' most exploited groups: the men, women, and children who toil in the fields and orchards picking the vegetables and fruits that stock grocery stores. Huerta is a much-admired role model for Mexican American women. Recorded March 12th, 2008, as part of Women's Week 2008.

College of Humanities International Studies Program The Anne and Sandy Dolowitz Lecture on Human Rights Professor Mark Bradley, Department of History, University of Chicago In this lecture, Bradley explores how and why U.S. state and non-state actors came to feel a responsibility in and beyond the nation for the individual victims of human rights abuses. Drawing on selected historical cases from the 1940s and 1970s, he also explores the limits, contradictions and tensions of these global sensibilities about human rights at a time when the Cold War, decolonization and postcolonial state making increasingly shaped the contours of international order. Recorded February 4th, 2008, as part of The Anne and Sandy Dolowitz Lecture on Human Rights.
