Labor activist Dolores Huerta attended this Saturday the presentation of a new mural in her honor that was inaugurated in downtown Los Angeles.

It was the first public appearance for Huerta, 96, since in March she denounced the sexual abuse she suffered for years at the hands of César Chávez, with whom she founded the agricultural workers union in the United States.

Huerta's complaint was added to those filed by other women against Chávez, accusations that sparked a deep debate about the legacy of the late union leader in California and other states in the country.
