    Lessons of green giants By Emil Guillermo, Stockton Record, CA
    So clip this column and read it as you wait in the long food lines to spend more than what the average asparagus worker made before the UFW was around.

    Then lift a spear to those who inspired Cesar Chavez: Filipino Americans Larry Itliong, Pete Velasco, Philip Vera Cruz. Andy Imutan. Transpees all. Unsung heroes of the Valley's labor movement.

    Green giants.
